We abandoned our plans to explore the northwest side of the islands this day when the Arctic Sun rose and hovered just above the horizon for the next 2.5 hours. Instead we just drove the coast on a aimless adventure following the light. Lofoten is a magical place. #BVSquad #BVSBlue

Lofotr Viking Museum
This tiny surfing village in Norway has a population of 15. Surfers flock from all over the world to surf in this perfect wave condition. It is cold but the hardy do not seem to mind. On this particular evening the sky erupted in #green. I braved the frigid water as it reflected back onto the beach. The tide was rising rapidly but I was mesmerized by the #green lights of the sky dancing over my head. I could see the Milky Way, it was a wonderful discovery. If you happen to be in Northern Norway, it is worth a visit. #greenphotos

The Lofoten Islands in northern Norway are absolutely stunning. You're constantly treated to views like this while simply driving down the road. I swear we stopped every half mile to take pictures of the #blue waters and breathtaking mountains.
