06-10: We were so thankful the waters were calm last night. Today we have clear skies and sunshine! The sun is always up, but we don't always have sunshine. On this return trip, we will have some of the same ports, but also some new ports of call.
Our first stop is Hammerfest, with a population of 10K. It is the most northern city and the same latitude as Siberia. Stuart went out and got a few snacks at a nearby store. I've heard it's 67F and the sun is out, so it was nice in the city. We played Phase 10 for a little while after breakfast and then worked on our laptops till lunch. More cards in the form of 5 Crowns after lunch. Then back to the laptops. We are enjoying a scenery very much. But I think it's time we're ready to I had to a different place!
Tonight we go to a midnight concert in Tromso. It seems strange to do that when it looks like noon and not midnight! We walked a short distance to the church and enjoyed the concert, which was approx. 45 minutes long. The one woman singing had a great Soprano voice. There was another woman on the pipe organ and switched to the piano, she was good as well. The one man played 2 different types of saxophones. All of the were very talented. After the short walk back to the ship and getting ready, we dropped into bed at 2a! Another great day.
