Today we are heading further North to the some of the picturesque islands of Norway, before following the Norwegian coast South West to Bergen. On the way we are going to fly by Kiruna Church, Stornappstinden, Mengelsdalstinden, Helgeland Bridge, Trondheim, Storseisundet Bridge, Hardanger Bridge and Fyksesund Bridge.
Looks like a nice day here in Vaarsa - hopefully that continues and we can get to see the sights
Heading North over the Gulf of Bothnia and some much thicker clouds here as we approach Sweden
And here is the East coast of Sweden
Kiruna Church is our first destination
Climbing through the murky cloud as we head North into Norway
Stornappstinden and Mengelsdalstinden are next in a stunning series of islands on the North coast of Norway - still cloudy, but some gaps, so hopefully we’ll get some good views
Stunning views through the clouds though - what an amazing place
Turning South towards Helgeland Bridge, still pretty murky
And South West on to Trondheim - and more low cloud
Storseisundet Bridge
Hardanger Bridge
Fyksesund Bridge
Finally, our last leg and on to Bergen through the low cloud and setting sun
Lined up for final approach
Down and parked
That was an awesome flight! Some great scenery!
