Who is up for a bit of this? The pics are back to front, you have to let the page load and start at the bottom and work up. Looks epic

Took me a while to load up the pictures! Having worked in both Norway and Russia brings back good memories. Looked like a great trip

I wonder how many other would be up for it. I think nordkap would be as far as I'd go.

[QUOTE=Ettienne;756972]I wonder how many other would be up for it. I think nordkap would be as far as I'd go.[/QUOTE] I'd love to do it but usually at work or visiting son. Take it you mean not crossing the border & going to Murmansk? I don't think I could resist...I know people from there, Arkhangelsk too. My next place of work might be the Yamal peninsula to the east. No idea how successful a visa application would be with the current goings on in the world

Looks a great trip, love these dairies. I'd do it but she doesn't like the cold so would be a hard sell.

And there was me thinking that an "artic circle" was a bunch of big lorries standing in a ring... Or maybe this. [ATTACH=CONFIG]28145[/ATTACH]

Yep, that's why I posted the pic. Come to think of it, it has a smaller turning circle than my C70....
