Igaliko, Greenland
5 Stars  This place was Amazing
Iceberg
Another picturesque view, this time taken whilst en route to Igaliko in Southern Greenland.

As a contrast to Iceland, it seems that in Greenland, they all paint their houses various colours and don't bother about the roofs! Here are some buildings in Qaqortoq.

Aurora Borealis or The Northern Lights. After missing them whilst in Iceland, we were lucky enough to see them a couple of times from Igaliko in Greenland. I am extremely pleased with this photo; its my only one of them that came out.

Apparently, when icebergs are formed from extremely old glaciers, they have a blue appearance due to having had all the oxygen squeezed out of them. I believe this to be a fine example.

The trip was arranged through Exodus in the UK and a local company in Iceland, and I don't mind giving them a plug since they seem to have done quite a good job. If you want any more information then please email me at stevetijou@freeuk.com.
