We bid a reluctant farewell to our stunning view this morning. The morning light has changed it yet again, rendering yesterday’s vivid blues a silvery grey. Today’s journey will see us cross the last of […]

Day Thirty Nine
We’re island hopping today, linking and following two recommended drives through Loften. Having toured the southern parts extensively, this second drive will take us to the northern islands of Hadseloya and Langoya. The mountains […]
Day Thirty Eight
We continue our exploration of Vest Lofoten, exploring both West and East coasts today. As mesmerising as the southern point is, Chris is very conscious that it we don’t make a move soon that we […]
Day Thirty Seven
A much slower pace today, exploring Vest Lofoten, the most southern point of the Lofoten islands. It’s still foggy and raining this morning but an excellent excuse to visit the local bakery where those in […]

Today is definitely the day – we are on target to cross the Arctic Circle, presently at 66° 33′ 39″. Apparently it changes by 2° each 40,000 years due to tidal forces from the moon. […]

Day Thirty Two
What goes up must come down, and it is so as we traverse then descend the mountain, all the while surrounded by the most breathtakingly beautiful scenery imaginable. These mountains are much higher than the […]
Day Thirty One
With midnight sun comes an early morn. The sun is shining brightly – it’s a perfect morning and setting for a hike. Cobwebs from a late night dusted off, coffee downed, it’s exercise gear on […]
