A few of them are on my website.<BR/><BR/>Another thing I forgot to mention - there was no noise. Never saw a plane apart from the airport.<BR/><BR/>Seen the dogs too.

Had a great party at midnight on a beach in the sunlight.<BR/><BR/>Travelled north on an ice-breaker until the ice was too thick to break. It is in the arctic circle so not surprising really.<BR/><BR/>We had three landings a day onto the ice/land. It was like a biology field trip/expedition!!! (In fact I've used it towards my professional biology CPE.)<BR/> <BR/>Pre-landing lectures about the plants, birds and animals really helped. Polar bears and arctic foxes were great. Taped two bears fighting on the ice.<BR/><BR/>Really odd having 24 hours of sunlight. Didn't want to go to bed.<BR/>I want to go back in the winter.<BR/><BR/>Worth a visit (unless you want to see loads of people). Glad I've been there. Probably the most exciting trip I've been on. Great for photos too - the white and black landscape. Amazing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3127154.post-1128734308411881562005-10-07T18:18:00.000-07:002005-10-07T18:18:00.000-07:00North of norway? Jesus.

I remember reading in Neither here nor There, Bill Bryson went to some town in northern Norway where the northern lights are supposed to be spectacular. It was very cold and there was nothing to do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
