Via de llum sobre Håkøya / Light path above Håkøya
La més impressionant nit d'aurores començava el seu espectacle just quan varem anar al punt d'inici de l'excursió a la petita illa de Håkøya, al oest de Tromso.
Per cert, a la riba d'aquesta illa és on fou enfonsat per bombes gegants Grand Slam el cuirassat alemany Tirpitz, el bessó del famós Bismarck.

=====================
Just as we arrived at the starting point for our (best) aurora trip, the lights showed that they were preparing a gorgeous night.
This was in the small island of Håkøya, west of Tromso. This is were the German battleship Tirpitz (the "younger brother" of the Bismarck) was sunk in 1944, with giant grand slam bombs. Part of it (20%?) still lies there, just below the surface; but from outside there's not much to see. Anyway, the lights showed us the way...
