The temps were not too bad around 6C in the day so similar to home. I think the sea keeps Tromso "mild" thought it was very chilly at night! I've seen those Hurtigruten cruises and the boat came in to Tromso daily - so maybe!!

I can't imagine enduring these extremes of cold and dark, despite the candlelights, it must have felt oddly satisfying to know that dull, grey UK is brighter and warmer than where you were departing from. I know the Arctic countries are very pricey, drink in particular (even non-alcoholic beverages, as you discovered) is exorbitant. The view from your window over the harbour was fabulous, glad you were on the right side of the pane, though.<br /><br />Neighbours of ours had a late summer holiday on a Norwegian post boat a few years back, which was completely not deluxe but incredibly special with a fortnight of fjord deliveries in the most amazing scenery. Maybe you could combine that with a fresh hunt for Aurora Borealis?pussywillowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16824730560199562191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814471291716279717.post-45872537183082254342012-11-23T12:52:20.867+00:002012-11-23T12:52:20.867+00:00Hi Elle - yes it was lot longer in reality than it...Hi Elle - yes it was lot longer in reality than it looked and COLD LOL!

Ah the ducks were so sweet although they did quite well for food really as I saw other people feed them but the fish pinching the ducks' bread were a scream! I had 52 ducks for breakfast one day - the bread didn't go very far!

I know nothing of Norway, so loved it all. The cathedrals are small, but very sweet, and the Arctic cathedral: Wow!! Knitted dolls and the embroidery are very eye-catching.
