N is for Northern Lights

Magical lights in the sky and I’m not tripping? Yes please.  The Aurora Borealis has always fascinated me.  It just seems so unreal and unnatural, yet it is completely pure and absolute.  The pictures I’ve seen, while incredible, I am sure do not do justice to the real thing.

I simply must see the northern lights. I wouldn’t mind seeing them in Alaska, but rather, I envision seeing them somewhere more exotic, like Iceland. I could kill two birds with one stone this way. Visit a new country and see the lights.  I feel it will be one of those very present moments in which I do not even want to take photos, but rather simply watch, and enjoy and be in awe of what this world can do.

  1. I agree. I'd love to see the northern lights too. They are sometimes visible - just about - from Britain but never from the south west where I live. I imagine seeing them from Iceland would be magical.
