Norway Day 7
Tromsø to London
Our flight home wasn't until later in the day, so we still had time for some last minute sightseeing in the city - without the benefit of cold weather gear.
Norway Day 6
Ravnastua to Tromsø
It was time to return to Tromsø. This would be our final chance to see the aurora.
Norway Day 5
The Lavvu
Another day, another chance to see the Aurora Borealis. Today I got to drive a snow scooter, chop firewood, and eat meat cooked over a fire in a lavvu.
Norway Day 4
Ice Fishing and Sauna
During the day we attempted some ice fishing; but found the ice extended all the way down to the silt. In the evening we could get warmed up in the sauna.
Norway Day 3
Snow Scooters
There's not much to do when you're in the middle of nowhere with very few hours of daylight. We did however get to ride the snowscooters as we waited for night and the hope of seeing the aurora.
Norway Day 2
Tromsø to Ravnastua
We were taken by minibus from Tromsø through Finland and back into Norway to some awaiting snow scooters near Karasjok. From there we were taken at speed through the trees to the cabins of Ravnastua.
Norway Day 1
London to Tromsø
It took two flights to get from the UK to Tromsø; but it was going to be worth it. After this long day we'd be on our way to our final destination in the morning.

Trip Preparation
Iceland may not have gone to plan; but another opportunity had presented itself to see the Northern Lights. Time for some more planning!
