Northern Lights Tromso

The Italian guide told us that he was looking for sky with stars. He stopped at some place with stars and then he pointed at the sky and told us that was the northern lights. We didn't believe at 1st but slowly it became more clear...Only awhile and the sky turned cloudy again....
 





 
The guide pointed that the northern lights was above the light house..
Picture below showed...not clear..
















 
I think we were lucky despite the bad weather, the sky actually cleared for awhile allowing us to see the northern lights. The guide said that the activity level for the northern lights were low too..

Husky sledding at Tromsø Golfpark

We took a 5 days 4 nights package with the following.
Tromsø and the Lyngen Alps - Northern Lights and Crystal Lavvos
We took package with the same company when we were in Finland, so thought it was trustable and good.
Cost us 1062.35 pounds.
We stayed in Clarion Collection Hotel Aurora. Free breakfast and dinner. There was free waffle, made on own from 3pm.









 
We went to Tromsø Golfpark for our Husky ride.
The ride was not as fun as Finland's. The guide controlled our speed. We couldn't go fast. We were right behind the guide and she will monitor us and sold us. The sleigh used was different also. Harder here as we had to frequently stepped and released on the brake to clear the accumulated snow.




 
The dog's hut.














 
Here, I was not scared of the dogs as they were friendly.




 
This dog was fierce at first. "Grring" at us. But it was actually a friendly dog..
It had nice eyes too. Different colored.






 
We learnt how released the dog from the sleigh and bring the dog back to their hut.




 
So cute. The dog with the different colored eyes.


 
Our light lunch. Fish soup..Love their instant hot chocolate. Took a few home.

















 
We board this ferry to Lyngen Alps
