Report from Eldey: The weather was great tonight, with warm air, almost no wind and calm seas. unfortunately it was quite cloudy, but that did not scare us off to sail out tonight! We had to wait patiently but after some time the northern lights appeared! A very broad band of bright lights appeared perfectly in the center of a gap in the clouds! For some minutes we got to see them got bigger and brighter, until they eventually fade away. From this point onwards though, we had a few more gaps opening with bright northern lights appearing and going in, painting the skies green and purple. Eventually we had to end our evening though, so we sailed happily back to port
