Unfortunately for us, clouds were too huge to see the northern lights. Yet with your camera it is possible to catch the colorful lights of the auroras above the clouds with an exposition of 30sec (don’t forget your tripod, as I did.). Thanks to friendly persons I met out there, I was able to use a tripod and to try to catch the lights. It was my first try so these are not quality pics but you can see the green lights (green always = Northern lights).

We also had a magical time in an hut where we heard about our future life.

The way Fins read their futur once a year: they take a special spoon (which is only used for that, nothing else, do not mix your salad with it) in which they put a small horseshoe and they bring the spoon over a fire. When the metal is melt, they drop it in a bucket of cold water. So several pieces of metal get solid again then they pick the biggest one and look at its shadow’s shape.
