Too Jet Lagged to Blog

I'm back from my trip to Lofoten--it was wonderful and gorgeous and amazing, and I have lots to write and tons of pictures to post, but I am way too tired to right now. The midnight sun was beautiful but it also made going to bed at a reasonable hour impossible. Here is a picture of the view from our cabin taken around noon:
And here is a photo of the same view taken around 1:30 AM. See how crazy light it still is? We sat around, talked, laughed and drank wine until the wee hours every night, tricked into thinking it was still early by that bright sky.

So now I'm jet lagged in addition to being incredibly sleep deprived...I have lots more to post, but it will have to wait--my bed is beckoning!

Emily, that picture makes me want to go back immediately! I had such a fantastic time with you and Victoria---I can't wait to do it again.

I haven't caught up on my sleep yet but am hoping tonight will be the ticket. I'm sort of looking forward to November and the dark of winter... :-)

I miss you already.

Emily, I'm so glad you'll be posting about the trip later, since Michele and Victoria have gone on hiatus. :p

You basically learn to ignore the light and go to bed anyhow, when you live up there - and dark curtains are a MUST! I miss Boston though, where it was actually DARK at 9 PM...

I can't wait to do it again. Actually wouldn't a (warm) beach destination be fantastic?? Hmmmmm........
