Time to go

Up early for breakfast, final scan of the cabin before we leave and onto the bus.We are looked after well and taken on a bus ride around Tromso. It comes to mind that it would have been better had we had this on the first day. We do have clear skies but that is due to change later in the afternoon but by then will be gone. We have an excellent guide and I can't help but reflect on how much information and the quality of information we get compared with yesterday.

We take a cable car to the top of a peak just outside Tromso. Fantastic scenery! Coffee is available with some cinnamon scroll reportedly very sweet. A local delicacy no doubt. There is still time to drive over one of the breaches which can be impossible when there is strong wind. The bus takes us to a point where we can see the lake and again have a panoramic view over this part of Tromso. I am a little concerned as Bob decides of course to walked to the edge where there is serious ice and we are not wearing crampons, they have been packed. Never know what you might need in Melbourne

We have plenty of time and get to the airport where we say farewell to our Brisbane traveler. Next stop ParisLäs mer
