Harstad Finnsnes Tromso Skjervoy


Early morning stop in Harstad

Exploring Harstad and feeling rather at home!



Road crossing for children pulling wooden snails on wheels?  Or just 'Baie lekker'?

And a few hours later in Finnsnes

Killing time in Finnsnes.

Leaving Finnsnes



Early afternoon we arrive in Tromsø, the largest town in northern Norway, also known as the capital of the Arctic.



Brightening up the harbour area.
The Domkirke in the town center, one of Norway's largest wooden churches.


After having walked around the town center, we cross the long bridge to get a closer look at the Arctic Cathedral (or Tromsdalen Church).





Beautiful church with eleven triangles representing glacial crevasses and auroral curtains and a huge triangular stained-glass window.




Returning to the harbour area to catch our lift further north.
