Bodo

    Bodo is a nice little city at 67 degrees north latitude. I expected it would have turned cool by now, being so far north, but I had to take off my pullover in town because it was too warm. The city center is a short walk from the pier, I look a leisurely walk over to see the sights.

   The cathederal was closed, so I wandered around some and found the biggest fishing supply store I ever saw. Outside I bought a hot dog and strolled back to the ship; I could understand why the Bodo section of the Norway Travel Guide was small.

   I've also posted a picture of one of the many lighthouses we've sailed passed on the trip so far. Tonight we head into the Lofoten Islands; I was last here as a young lieutenant in the navy and I was very impressed. Now that I have seen so much more of the world than I had when I was 26, we'll see if that great first impression holds up.

   There are 4 stops tonight between 7:00pm and 4:00am; I wonder if I'll get much sleep.
