The Caribbean of the Artic


Today we had a 65km bike ride from Tromsø to Sommarøy. The views for the entire day were gorgeous. We rode through islands and islands to arrive at our final destination. Where we are now is what they call the Caribbean of the Arctic. There are white sand beaches and the ocean is extremely clear and has turquoise spots all over. If only the water was a little warmer... After we arrived at cabin 51, a cabin at this resort that my dad has stayed at multiple times before, we walked over to the wood burning hot tub and sauna. The hot tub felt so good after a long day biking and there were side doors that opened up to the open Ocean. My dads old host parents from Norway have joined us for these last few days in Norway and their names are Finn and Inger. They were great to bike with and they will be fun to hang out with in the next few days. The day was overcast today with a little rain but near the end of the day it cleared up and we got some sun. We will have a rest day tomorrow so we might go on a hike or go exploring around on the island and that should be fun!
