Hurtigruten - MS Trollfjord - Day 6

In a little while, we will be docking in Honningsvåg. The weather is fantastic but it is not really warm when you are this far north. So sitting out on deck, reading or smoking your pipe as Henry is doing here, means you keep your jacket on and maybe even a blanket.

It takes some pretty thick ropes to tie up a ship like this, and more than one of course.






As you can see, maintenance is taken seriously on board this ship, everything is in perfect condition.











When we passed Kinnarodden, the Northernmost part of the European mainland, I hopped in the jacuzzi on the sundeck. Being at 71° North has to be celebrated with bubbles.

A nice and quiet day and there is no way I can get enough of the midnight sun. 11pm and the colours are fascinating.
