Coastal Voyage 3
Tromso and the Arctic

Two ships in port. |
|
|
We left first, but suddenly backed up and moved back to the pier...... |
|
|
This mysterious woman ran to the ship with her dog. We had been told this would never happen - the ship does not come back for anyone. Perhaps this was a special friend?? |
