Lofoten – Kabelvåg and Svolvær

Arrival in Lofoten Islands
We spent a week in the Lofoten Islands; it was pure magic. Here are the pictures taken until we arrived in Svolvær on the Hurtigruten Coastal Express.

Tromsø
Below are the pictures taken during my visit in Tromsø, a city located in Northern Norway. We arrived during the Midnight Sun Marathon, after three flights. And the sun didn’t set! The city has a very nice atmosphere. I think I’d like to live there, but I’m not sure about winter and the polar night…
Lavvu
Temporary dwelling used by the Sami people of northern Scandinavia. It was used as a shelter during the midnight sun marathon:

Week end in Niederbronn
I spent this week end in Niederbronn les Bains, Alsace, France. Then we went to the Bitcherland for my mother’s cousin birthday party. We hiked quite a lot also, despite the rain and thunderstorms.

Hike near Lamadelaine
I hiked with Rocio today; we’ve been caught by a thunderstorm on the way but it wasn’t enough to stop us.
Most of the time, we followed the hiking trail named Autopedestre Lamadelaine.
