Cruising with post and freight - Hurtigruten way pt2


Gales in the north made the going a tad rough - plenty of sea-sickness, but the one and a half hours of daylight gave some wonderful views of the fjords and short visits to small places which made you realise life in the north revolved around transport. Here is a photo of some views.
Apologies for the slight shake - its darker than it looks and the Polarlys was moving along quite quickly. On the right is a typical stop-off, looking from the foot of the steps off the boat. This is Nordcapp - the most northern bit of Europe, nothing more north till the pole - except ice and sea.
