From summer to winter
12.15: As we approach
Bardufoss airport
May winter in Målselv
1,5 hour ago, we left Oslo Airport on
Gardemoen. As we passed Mjøsa, the largest lake of Norway,
nothing
reminded us of winter (10.45AM). But after descending through the dense
clouds over northern Norway - we are met by full winter (se picture on
top). This kind of contrasts is due to the long distance between southern
and northern Norway. We have already travelled 1500 km northwards, and
are app. 500 km north of the arctic circle. But - it is still a 1000 km
drive to get to to Kirkenes in Finnmark county.
We were invited to view the Bardufoss area
from one of the helicopter's
of the Royal Norwegian Air Force.
Pictures shot Friday
at app. 10.40AM - 2.30PM
