One Week Itinerary In Lofoten Islands In October (Part 3)

I’ve been talking about my desire to photograph Lofoten, but it was rainy on and off every day, and opportunities to photograph landscape during my favorite sunset hours didn’t come by easily. That opportunity finally arrived on Day 5!

Our First Stop In the Arctic Circle

Instead of making our first stop at Norway’s major cities in the south, we landed in Tromso in the north, one of world's largest towns within the Arctic Circle. I had to admit, I just couldn’t wait to be in the Arctic Circle, seeing and photographing northern lights!

3 Day Family Trip At North Cascades

We made our first trip to North Cascades National Park over a 3-day weekend. We completed a 4.6-mile Blue Lake hike, the longest hike with our kids, in a 4-hour drizzle, followed by a 3.8-mile hike at Sauk Mountain in the fog. We were completely soaked in the incredible views, and knew for sure we’d come back.
