And to continue the feel-better-in-grey-winter vibe, summer from the arctic: this is the extroardinary #Lofoten #Norway at midsummer last year. The wildflowers were wild, weather: blue and warm (worryingly: pavement coffee in Tromsø a day or two later). And the midnight sun - exquisite, if a bit weird.

Navigation into Trollfjorden, N of Svolvaer, is unbelievable, given how tight it is - to navigate then turn (on the spot) to return. Impressive stuff from the skipper.

A panoramic landscape view in Lofoten, with pointed sharp mountains in the distance, remains of snow flecks just visible, behind two blue lakes and the green of midsummer
A very narrow gorge seen from the deck of a ship, with blue midnight sun sky, over steel water, and sheer rocky cliffs to port and starboard.  Snowy peaked mountains ahead.

That's truly fabulous. I love the mad climb out of the Corrie loch at 05:07 too... That video was taken mid summer as well I think. What a place to be a pilot in a quick plane.

Thank you so much. Loved it.
It is. I go with a pack, tent and #5 fly rod any time I can across the summer... I'd be Norwegian tomorrow if they'd have me. 😀
