Reykja­vik, Oslo, Lon­gye­ar­by­en, some warm days in civi­li­sa­ti­on bet­ween Green­land and Spits­ber­gen. Swim­ming pools with natu­ral hot water. Muse­ums with relics from famous polar expe­di­ti­ons. Back to the arc­tic com­fort zone. Back home. Impres­si­ve amounts of equip­ment need to be sor­ted (too much, as always). Mean­while, SV Anti­gua is alre­a­dy in port.

Pho­to Isfjord – 15th Sep­tem­ber 2015 – 1/3

A trip into the unknown beg­ins with well-known rou­ti­nes. (Well, not real­ly into the unknown, of cour­se. But we don’t exact­ly know what the next days will bring, that is the natu­re of this way of tra­ve­ling).

Pho­to Isfjord – 15th Sep­tem­ber 2015 – 2/3

Peo­p­le have to get used to each other and to the ship, and then we are off. Cour­se west and then north. Mean­while, arc­tic autumn is show­ing off. A beau­tiful sun­set behind the west coast.
