Good morning from MN. It's gonna be another hot week here and then on Saturday we leave for the UP. I hate the week of deciding what to pack. You just never know with the weather UP there. Sure do hope we have a beautiful week for spending on the shores of that gorgeous lake.

Have a great week, everybody!!!

By Capt. Paul (Eclogite) on Monday, July 30, 2012 - 08:01 am:

Barely! :-P


By Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper) on Monday, July 30, 2012 - 08:01 am:

Yep :-)

Love the sailing ships and Bond Falls. Awesome!

I think I beat ya to Nordkapp, Capt. (Google)
I took E69 to the end where there was what looked like a church dome and a memorial in the parking lot...couldn't read what it said though. Looks like some desolate county. Would not want to run out of gas :-(

Often wondered what the green 'splat' under the early bird means. ;) hmmmm


By Capt. Paul (Eclogite) on Monday, July 30, 2012 - 09:37 am:

It means the bird has been eating peas, Shirley. ;-)

I am currently sitting under that dome you speak of Alex, peering out over the Arctic Ocean as I write this message. It is very desolate country here, this is the arctic tundra after-all!! We have been seeing lots of reindeer (caribou) on the way up here as well; however, none of them have had a red nose.....

Tomorrow we start heading back through Finland and Sweden where we have a great chance of seeing a moose or two along the way, then back to Stockholm to catch our flight back.


By Shirley Waggoner (Shirlohio) on Monday, July 30, 2012 - 09:43 am:

LOL! Thanks, Capt.
I'll bet you two will hate to see this beautiful voyage end. Thank you for sharing all the photos and info along the way.


By Alex "UP-Goldwinger" (Alex) on Monday, July 30, 2012 - 10:07 am:

Wow, Capt...When I began to read your last post, I thought you were talking about the inscription on the monument "The bird has been eating peas", too funny. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
Be safe!

The splat on my screen looks more turquoise than green. My computer must have more Navajo heritage.


By Shirley Waggoner (Shirlohio) on Monday, July 30, 2012 - 03:04 pm:

Yeah, Dunerat, it is more of a turquoise. Maybe the Capt. can come up with a reason for that.;-)


By Capt. Paul (Eclogite) on Monday, July 30, 2012 - 05:51 pm:

Milk of Magnesia, perhaps??

Unfortunately, the fog rolled in at Nordkapp this evening, so no chance of seeing the midnight sun; however, we did shoot a few pics (including the one below) last night from our little B&B in Repvag that show just how light it is here at 12:45 a.m. Once we get back, I'll be posting most of the photos in my "Guest Gallery" page for all to see....

lol!I knew you'd have an answer, Capt.
That is a beautiful scene, but not sure I could stand all that daylight....I'm one of those who likes total darkness when I sleep.
