Fog...........we didn't see anything !

Nordkapp was considered a power centre and sacrifice site for the Sami people.

It was named North Cape by Richard Chancellor, the English explorer who drifted this way in 1553 on a search for the North-East Passage.

But, don't let anyone tell you it's the most northern point in Europe !
This honour goes to the Knivskjelodden, a few kilometres to the nort-west.

A good wake-up call in the morning............who's ringing the bell ??
