Despite living in #Durham for almost 50 years, I still marvel at the Castle & Cathedral, the #RiverWear & the bridges. People pay to visit this beautiful city, but we can see it from our bedroom window! ❤️

MSBalmoral is on her way to Trondheim Norway & we're back below the Arctic Circle again. This means the sun actually rose at 11.00am & we saw daylight for the first time since 26th December.

#Norway is one of my favourite countries to visit. #Tromsø is at 69⁰N and the sun never rises between the end of November & the end of January.
