Northern Lights Wave Good Bye

As I arrived in Oslo, I marveled at the 30-degree temperature after spending last night in temps hovering at about 40 below. Thought the air was cold the people of Kirkenes were extremely warm. While dinning on reindeer the Northern Lights shimmered above as almost a wave farewell. The Sami people told us stories and the dogs pulling sleights outside yelped.

The Sami used to be called Laplanders but did not like it. Sami is the name. The fireplace roared and we feasted. This was after a day of snowmobile riding on a frozen fjord and catching the delicious Red King Crab. Just another day at the office!
