81 Degrees North and the Land of the Midnight Sun. August 17th - Monacobreen - north shore of Svalbard. We moored in Monacobreen, a fjord with lots of ice floating in the water and several glaciers. We were in the second group of Zodiacs to leave the ship and we heard that one of the first Zodiacs had seen a polar bear, albeit in the distance. Our Zodiac was driven by Christian and our guide was Sue Flood. As we got nearer to the glacier, we saw some calving taking place but it was a long way away. Eugen...

81 Degrees North and the Land of the Midnight Sun. August 15th - Sail north to 81 degrees. We woke in the morning as the boat headed more or less due north and away from Svalbard to meet the pack ice. We passed the last of the most northerly islands of Svalbard shrouded in cloud and surrounded by ice at around 7.30am. We went on to the bow to watch the ship making its way through the ever increasing floes of ice. We then went to a lecture on Polar Bears by Robin Aiello which was interesting and entertain...

81 Degrees North and the Land of the Midnight Sun. August 21st - At sea - Tromso. We had a leisurely breakfast with Randy and Mardi from Canmore near Calgary. We then watched a screening of the film Kristine has been making of the trip, which was very good, but, at a cost of $150, we decided not to order a copy! Following Kristine's talk there was a farewell gatherimg in the theatre. We went up on deck and had our first sighting of the Norwegian mainland. We drove a short way to the Botanical Gardens whi...
