Norway - Part 5 Of An Occasional Series
13th April 2021
This was the first day with less than perfect weather so it was rather a long day at sea. We had a brief stop at Harstad in the early morning so I hopped ashore for a few photos.
After lunch we arrived in Trømso which is a fantastic location but it wasn't looking its best in the rain. We had a walk over the bridge to Tromsdalen Church, aka Ishavskatedralen or Arctic Cathedral.
We also visited Polaria which is apparently the most northerly aquarium in the world.Then it was back aboard for dinner and another night travelling north towards Honningsvåg and the Nordkapp. A slight disappointment at not getting to go up in the cable car to Storsteinen as it was a pretty poor day, but we can always return.
