Sure you've heard of the "midnight sun" but do you know the opposite? It is called the "polar night" and once we crossed into the Arctic, we do not see the sun. No sunrise. No sunset. For a couple of treasured hours we have a soft twilight glow. Arlo said that even though we are on vacation we keep to a rigorous schedule of rising hours before dawn every day.
Love that first photo! I check your blog multiple times each day, hoping you caught the lights!
ReplyDeleteIt's really beautiful in all its Arctic splendor! I like how everyone's out taking advantage of the light - sailing and flying like a polar race against time.
