Bon Voyage on Hurtigruten ship Nordkapp

We vacated the lovely snow hotel cabins to join the southbound cruise ship from Kirkenes to Bergen. The Nordkapp is not luxury like other cruise lines and doesn't have entertainment etc, but the cabins are cosy and the meals are good.

We had booked a snowmobile tour in the polar night which happened to be the very first night on the ship..... at 1am! It was rather surreal driving on these Ski-doo's at 2 o'clock in the morning. Didn't really see any spectacular northern lights but I have included a couple of photos Brad took. The camera picks ups more than the eye can see, but these photos have also been enhanced a bit.

As we cruise down the coast of Norway, we stop at many ports on the way, sometimes only 10 minutes. We called into Hammerfest today which is the most northern town in the world. Only there for an hour and a half, enough time to visit the meridian marker, but as it was a Sunday, mostly everything was shut.もっと詳しく
