Hey guys we arrived in Ny Alesund today which is a small island in Svalbard. We visited a glacier to dig a pit for Shonas experiment, but we failed as the ice as too hard. Part of the glacier broke off and landed in the sea and we all had to run because it made huge waves LOL!!!! Ms Burdett also fell over whilst we were walking up the mountain and cut her eyebrow and she now has a black eye. Well my live blog is on Thursday so please get your questions in and i’ll be happy to answer them xxx
