All This Ice And It's Too Early For a Gin & Tonic!

(Continuing my day-by-day look at my epic Arctic voyage with Hurtigruten)

Welcome to another day in the high Arctic. The scenery up here is incredible. Even on an overcast day like this morning, it takes your breath away. If you can't get all the way to the Antarctica, then do try and get up here as it's really, seriously wonderful.

On sunny days, the whole character of the place changes and you get a totally different type of beauty.

Tomorrow we are going to see some of the relics from the early polar explorers and visiting the world's most northerly settlement.
