We are finally in after acclimatising in Macau and we are on to the serious bit - the Games themselves.

My flight from London to Hong Kong was great. I upgraded to business class (or World Traveller Plus, as it is called now) and it was amazing.

I felt like a bit of a though as I had never flown business class before and was a bit out of place, but it was good.

I had my own little area where I could put my feet up and relax. I was most looking forward to the actual sleeping because you can never get comfy on a plane, can you?

I was just grateful I could lie down - I think I had a full eight hours of sleep. I was really pleased about that, because sometimes I don't even get that at home.

Training has been going great so far. The first two days in we only trained in the afternoon as we were all tired and needed our sleep.

The hotel there is amazing and because we had been there a couple of times already it felt like we had never been away.

I can't actually believe it was a year since we were last in Macau - there are so many hotels that have been built while we have been away.

Macau is like the Chinese version of . The Chinese aren't allowed to gamble on the mainland so they come over to Macau to gamble.

I have never been to Vegas but I can imagine that it is just like Macau but on a bigger scale.

The weather has been on the warm side but I don't want to make anyone jealous as I know we haven't had much of a summer back in England.

We flew to Beijing on Tuesday ahead of the this Saturday. Because I'm competing the following day, I will not be going.

In the past, there has usually been a day in between the opening ceremony and competing, but this time there is no rest for the wicked!

My fianc茅 Rik, who is on the , will be over there before I get to Beijing so at least he will be able to get his bearings as well.

I'm starting to get pretty nervous now, as I'm going into this Games as World and and the pressure is all on me to perform.

My parents and Rik's parents are coming out too so it will be nice to have a load of support there. Plus I'm sure I'll be able to hear my dad and my brother shouting.

If not, then I'm sure everyone else will be able to hear them, so I apologise now for any bleeding ears.

Just wanted to say congratulations to the . I was glued to it all the way - it was just amazing, so let's hope that we can do it too.

I would also like to thank the people who have sent good luck messages to me and Rik - they are much appreciated. Let's hope we can do you all proud.

And finally, good luck to everyone on the - fingers, toes, eyes, legs and mouths crossed!
