Tenby adventurer Rosie Swale Pope has reached Greenland as she makes her way home on her round the world voyage on foot. In a message posted on her website http://www.rosiearoundtheworld.co.uk">www.rosiearoundtheworld.co.uk at the weekend, the 61-year-old grandmother said: "My first big dream in Greenland was to see the Viking settlement on the edge of the Kuussuup Glacier in Southern Greenland. How very lucky I was to achieve it a few days ago." Rosie has encountered heavy snow and icy conditions on the world's largest island, coupled with temperatures of -29 at night, but the weather has not hindered her journey. "Greenland is unique in many ways. To me it is also unique as it is the only country I cannot run right across in the winter - though I might seek permission from the Danish Polar Society to try to cross the ice cap in summer one day. "I loved being in the wonderful Narsarsuaq community for five days and meeting everybody. Now I am in Nuuk! It is a truly buzzing vibrant fun capital city of 15,000 most friendly, charming people!" Rosie, who set off from her home on her 57th birthday in October 2003, is expected to arrive back in Pembrokeshire in the autumn.
