NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00

Report from Eldey: We went out in a beautiful clear night, you could see the stars very brightly on the sky and we even could see a shooting star. The "Green Lady" on the other hand tested our patience tonight. It was only towards the end of the tour that the northern lights showed themselves. But boy they put a very nice show on for us, displaying a huge arch across the sky up to mount Esja ! A successful end to a nice tour.
