Northern Lights

We have been hoping to see the northern lights while up north and weretreated with a show while cruising from Akureyri to Reykjavik close to the Artic circle again. It was after midnight before the skies cleared and we were able to make out the streaks of Aurora. A bit underwhelming in real time to be honest, but photographs with long exposure bring out the expected coloured display. The pool deck was too bright for serious viewing and it was technically only twilight. It was also very cold on top deck despite layers of clothes and we needed frequent hot coffee in the seaview cafe before giving up at about 1:15am. Another experience to tick off.
