    Gratz!! I am planning to this with my son this year. I had it all planned out a few years ago and then COVID hit. I’m also primarily Norwegian and want to see the homeland.

    I was in Finland a couple weeks ago, and see them but they weren’t bright at all. You could barely see them with a camera. And then a couple of days later, our taxi driver told us that the night before was the brightest most colorful auroras he had seen :( and it was possible for us to see them from our hotel but we didn’t know about them.

    So happy for you! I was in Alaska and Iceland, unfortunately no northern lights to be seen. Feels like luck of the draw. I’ll be so ecstatic when it finally happens!
