Snæfellsnes Peninsula Northern Lights
Posted on 26/2/25
The Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) are a natural phenomenon which are often elusive. In fact they are very elusive with not only the correct conditions existing out in space between the solar wind and the Earth's magnetic field and also the actual ability to see them with clear nights and no cloud cover. As you can imagine this combination of events does not occur every night. They had put on a display on 4 previous nights but conditions were not perfect although some images were taken. At 12:30 am however in between snow showers and the lights from the Olafsvik harbour they put on a show that lasted for around 40 minutes.

Day 14: Sacred Dances in the Rain - A Final Bhutanese Blessing
The pre-dawn darkness of our last full day in Bhutan found us preparing to leave Paro, our destination a traditional festival in Choekor winding along the AH-48 road through the mountains. As our bus climbed into the highlands, the heavens opened, draping the landscape in sheets of rain that would become our constant companion for the journey.

Bhutan - Day 13 - Haa Festival - Sacred Dances in the Rain
The journey from Paro to Haa Valley proved to be one of our most dramatic drives yet. Climbing to 3,998 meters at the Chele La Pass, we crossed into a different world before descending for 1.5 hours into the remote Haa Valley. The landscape unfolded beneath us, watched over by the imposing Meri Puensum—three sacred hills that dominate every view in the valley.
