NORTHERN+LIGHTS

Last night we were chatting to the only two other guests in our hotel (young American couple on honeymoon) when the manager, who had just left, rushed back in and told us to look out the window..... and there they were - the Northern Lights! The sky had opened and although they weren't the most brilliant we spent a few hours on the terrace oohing and aaahhhing and trying to get "the photograph". It was pretty cold but occasional dashes inside the hotel lounge and a few slugs of Bushmills whiskey keep us warm enough. Tonight the forecast is for even better - ie more strength in the display!
