Through The Porthole - Day 8

Not a lot to see through this morning's porthole as we made our approach to Honningsvåg ("Honnings-vorg"). A small place of barely 2,500 people (rising by about another thousand during the summer season), that nevertheless boasts an airport, and provides a gateway to the North Cape for many thousands of tourists each year.

This will be the furthest North Maud will sail during this expedition, but for us there is still a little further to go.
