Spits­ber­gen 2013/08/04-19

This tour was not exact­ly favou­red by the wea­ther Gods, but the wild­life obser­va­tions were cer­tain­ly bet­ter than good. Two gre­at polar bear sightin­gs (and a num­ber of more distant, but nevertheless very inte­res­ting ones), several out­stan­ding wha­le­watching occa­si­ons inclu­ding a jum­ping hump­back wha­le, an excel­lent, clo­se viewing of belugas and a Sabine’s gull towards the end of the trip. So cer­tain­ly no lack of high­lights! And of cour­se the­re were not only the­se spec­ta­cu­lar events, but all the lan­dings, the tun­dra walks, the gla­ciers, the sai­ling … but have a look, the pho­to gal­le­ries below and the short ver­si­on of the pre­sen­ta­ti­on will speak for them­sel­ves.

To fol­low over a cou­p­le of mon­ths are some 360 degree pan­ora­ma images taken during this voya­ge.
