✔ TOUR ON SCHEDULE | at 21:00

Report from Eldey: The weather has been tricky the last few days and we have been dreaming about some good aurora activity. Even though the sky was supposed to be fairly cloudy, we sailed out with great optimism. It was as if the lights knew, they appeared as soon as we entered the water, although it was not always easy to see the light due to the clouds. It was impressive to see the lights break their way through the clouds, but after about 20-30 minutes they gave in and the clous blocked their way completely. We hoped the clouds would give in and the lights would find their way back to us. But the clouds didn´t move until we had already entered the harbour, and then with no lights in the sky. Overall, this was a pleasant tour, with mild weather, fantastic city views, and some very longed for northern lights. It certainly was a nice night to spend out at sea.
