We have had a great time at the mooring buoy in Helloya. Last night we were treated to a really impressively bright showing of the northern lights, unfortunately on a swing mooring with strong winds we were going in circles so holding the camera on one place was impossible...hence some blurry photos, but you get the idea!
This morning the wind was still blowing but all of a sudden came to a calm and so we decided to move on from the idyllic mooring to the equally lovely Bjarkoy, mainly the shower was calling! Still haven't braved standing on deck with our pet shower, at minus several we haven't been that desperate!
The cliffs along the southern coast of Helloya are a bird enthusiasts dream, we took shelter in the wheelhouse as we passed in case of any falling "gifts" from the hundreds of passing gulls.
Its lovely to be back In Bjarkoy too where we spent Christmas day. Its a beautiful island and really looks magical under the blanket of snow. So for a few days perhaps we will do more exploring here, there is a small village on the other side of the island which we haven't been to before so hopefully if we wrap up we will get there this time.
