THEY HAVE GONE TO SEE THE AURIRA BOREALIS

Whilst we are sweltering here in good old hot  Aussie summer,
Pete is right up on the top of the world in Tromvik in Norway...

Maria and Peter in Tromvik - Norway
They have gone to view the Aurora Borealis.  It was one of those things on his bucket list.  He seems to be consistently ticking off a lot of these lately. 
For those of you who have never heard of the place, it is s place with a very small population in the state/region of Troms, in Norway which is located in the continent/region of Europe. Cities towns and places near Tromvik include Tronvik, Taekvik, Rekvik and Grotfjord,  the cloese major cities include Murmansk, Tampere, Espoo and Helsinki.  It is pretty much at the top of Norway near that Artaric  Circle
This is where they are at the moment.....
Pete is staying up in the circled area of Norway.
This is what they are in search off.....
Spectacular Northern Lights..

Think I need to add it to our bucket list....
