Day 7 16.09.2015
This Wednesday was a day in the
name of exploration. We headed into the magnificent Scoresby Sund fjord system,
the biggest of the world. MV Fram has never been in here before, so every
landing and all the cruising is new, not only for the guests.
Our first landing took place at
Sydkapp, or Suuninnguaa in Greenlandic. It was fairly steep terrain, but
climbing it was worth the effort for seeing the very last and hardest of the
flowering plants. Again, the weather was beautiful. The light setting in the
morning hours was stunning and later during the landing the sun made us feel
comfortably warm.
The rest of the day we spent
cruising in the largest fjord system on earth, even under full engines it will
take us a while to reach the end of it.
In the night we still had no wind, 4°C,
clear skies and you guess it: Northern lights to watch.
