I am on top of the world!!!

Literally!!!! This morning I jumped up very early to take a soak in the jacuzzi as we were ported in the town of Hammerfest (N 070º 39,6' E 023º 39,5'). Hammerfest is credited with being the northernmost town of the WORLD! Although brisk and cool, my new Australian friend Helen and I (the one who lives in AbuDabi), take the opportunity to "bubble in the arctic north"!!

This Skyhawk is truly on top of the world!! Later this morning we will round the North Cape of Norway near Honningsvåg. The North Cape marks the most northern tip of continental Europe. I am truly above any US state and far above inhabitable Canada. I mean I dont mean to sound like I am saying im looking down or anything!!! I am going to grab some breakfast and then maybe a short morning nap.... or maybe not!

I can hardly believe that my trip is coming to a close... Wow... the places I have been!
