The Expedition arrived safe and happy back in Finland today after flying in from Spitzbergen via Oslo. After champagne, cakes and coffee, we held a well attended and successful press conference at Helsinki-Vantaa International Airport.

After this, we returned to the welcome embrace of our families, having been away for nearly three long months.

We would like to thank all our readers and followers for your support and questions. In your own very important way, you have helped us achieve our dream.

Daily updates of this diary end with this entry.

All is well with the Expedition.
