The Northern Lights: Spotted!
"DROP EVERYTHING!" Excuse me I said. "Yes drop everything, check out the Northern Lights forecast for this evening and put on your heaviest winter coat, we're going hunting"
Still today I'm glad I got that very excited phone call from my friend that demanded that we would cancel our plans for the evening and go hunting for the Northern Lights. The forecast hadn't been so good in... forever, we should know as we both work in tourism and follow the forecast meticulously. We rang up other interested friends, brilliant photographer Megan Whittaker being one of them, and started driving. We didn't even make it to the next town of Hveragerði as we stopped first chance we got when we were out of the city, we just had to as the sky was green! The sky was covered in bright green dancing Northern Lights. We were like kids, picking each others shoulders, pointing out in different directions making sure that nobody missed a thing.
I had never seen anything like it and I feel it would be wrong not to share some of the amazing pics we captured that magical night.
