As soon as we crossed the Arctic Circle on Day 8 we realised that the journey had taken on a new dimension. Some days have been simply terrifying. Zero visibility, snow storms, roaming Reindeer, roads completely covered with ice with barely a tyre track to follow, but the most amazing scenery. Highlights have been an overnight stop in a converted Jumbo Jet , visiting a Husky Farm and staying in an Igloo.

An extract from Day 14

“We climbed and climbed, no crash barriers to save you from certain death if you plummeted down the thousand foot drop on the left. The road continued in the same manner for 12 miles. Finally we reached the sign that said Nordkapp 500 metres and we knew that we had made it. Months of planning had come together, thousands of miles and a long way from the comfort of home”
