After crossing the Arctic Circle last night, today we sail past the Lofoten Islands and dock in the "capital," Svolvær. Here, for the first time, we're experiencing temperatures just below freezing, and there's snow on the ground! Fantastic!

Today we went to Svinøya. Svinøya consists of several small islands connected by causeways and small bridges. Svinøya is connected to the mainland by the 359-meter-long Svinøy Bridge, opened in 1964. Svinøya is just a 15-minute walk from the center of Svolvær.

Change of scene in the Lofoten Islands. Today we went to Svolvær, the capital of the Lofoten Islands. We were lucky enough to witness the Hurtigruten ferry entering the harbor.
A wonderful town, typically Lofoten.
