Cloud cover descended to the mountains like waves from the Nordic Gods, accompanied by wind speeds of around 40 km/hr and gusts of 55 km/hr, with swells measuring approximately 3 meters. What fun!

We navigated through the Magerøy Sound near Honningsvåg and are currently docked at the latter town. Regrettably, due to snow-blocked roads and strong winds, a visit to Nordkapp is not feasible.

The arrival of interesting weather patterns is welcome by me but less so by some other guests. Bless them.

These conditions are currently tapering off. Yawn…
