    I forget how lucky we are here in Saskatchewan to constantly see something so beautiful like the northern lights on a regular basis. A few nights ago they danced with multiple colors. So beautiful

      But I’ve seen them on my last 4 trips to Saskatoon area. (July-October)

    I was so lucky to see the Northern Lights 2 nights ago, at 35,000 ft on an Air Canada flight from Calgary to London. It turned out to be a 4 hour extravaganza from Hudson Bay all the way to just past Greenland. The Northern Lights have been on my bucket list for years. And all included in the air fare too!

      I have great trouble when it comes to seeing the color Green. The US Coast Guard Academy bumped me out when I failed their colorblind testing. I have failed to see the green sky prior to a tornado. I have seen what others have called the Northern Lights but I do see the yellow quite clearly. If your unfamiliar with common color blindness, some see colors but not what you see, it’s like a tone deaf singer. Oh how they love to sing! 😏

    As someone who lives in a place where you see northern lights semi regularly, it’s interesting to me that there’s whole trips for people to see something so normal to me. When they pop up here we may stick our head out the door and have a quick look but then we just shrug and go back inside 😂 I’m sure people who live in beach towns, etc., feel similarly.

I have seen them as far south as Carlisle, Pennsylvania and Bamburg, Germany. The farther south you go the redder the lights are.

    Went on the Fred Olsen's Bolette late last year for a week round northern western europe, absolutely loved the experience! Found the staff to be very friendly, never had to fight for sun-beds or chairs, live music throughout the whole day. Crossing the north sea was quite rough though. Me and my partner as both in mid 20's and didn't feel excluded, my other half said he preferred Fred Olsen to NCL! Would happily cruise with them again.

    For any foreigners, you don't have to sail that north to see a night where sun doesn't come down. You can experience the same in Baltic Sea cruises and ferries. You can also experience Northern lights in Baltic Sea Cruises and ferries if you get lucky. If you book the Tallink- or Silja Lines Emma has visited during midsummer season, you can experience the summer night just the same.

    Seems like a really cool cruise. I also forget that not everyone is as used to cold weather as others. for example here in Utah 14f in the winter is considered a warmer day. and it isn't uncommon to hit the negative F temps here. I personally would love to take a cruise like this as well as a cruise through Norway.

That looked like a great cruise though - we're doing our first Fred Olsen next year on your recommendation. Can't wait. :)

    You have outdone yourself this time. I was rooting for you till the end and so happy the Northern Lights would not disappoint you. I am so glad you had a good time and the photos you took came out well in the end. You deserved the success even though we were all hoping for it to be grander. Too bad you didn’t have a chance to kiss a dead fish, he would have enjoyed it for sure.
    Thanks for taking us along.

    I remember feeling lucky when seeing the lights in iceland. I think once you see them you want to go capture them again and spot the other colours. Well worth the rocky travel on the way.

    The Northern lights are amazing, we get to see them quite a lot, we live Rural Alberta, the good thing for us is, that we just go on our back deck, in the pitch black, & get to see the most amazing show, & incredible colours

    So glad you took this amazing trip. I actually am a sled dog musher and race in the Midwest in USA with my kennel; I have a few friends in Norway and I think I might recognize the kennel you went to. 🤣 It is so awesome to see you have such a good time there and enjoy just how HAPPY the dogs are and how much they love to run. We actually just got a northern lights show the other night here in north Wisconsin - I’ve never seen the lights before but people were saying it was the best show in nearly a decade. It was amazing to see and I am glad you were lucky enough to see it on this cruise too!

    On both my Alaskan cruises in late September, I saw the Norther lights several times. It ranged from faint green lights to awe inspiring. Hope to see them again.

    I grew up in Alberta Canada and was lucky to see the lights frequently. I've since moved across the country and see the lights far less often. I visited Iqaluit and missed seeing them due to asthma issues (it was -40 outside)

    We loved our Northern Lights cruise on Marella Discovery, thankfully we had 4 nights of sightings and the seas were really calm too! The Huskys were soo cute, even though they were smelly LOL! Great pictures of the Northern Lights, glad you experienced them, definitely a cruise to remember!

    I literally just booked this cruise itinerary tonight with Fred Olsen but ours is on Balmoral. We depart on 19th November and people will be well sick of hearing me talk about going to Norway by then. I'm originally from Canada so hoping I can recall how to deal with that kind of cold after so many years living in the much more temperate and rainy UK. I'm glad you had a good time, it's only our second cruise, first was on MSC Euribia almost exactly a year ago from this departure and the two ships couldn't be much more different!
