Spirits in the Sky – in pursuit of the Northern Lights

[iceman (Mike)]

Received this from Marnie Ogg and posting for the benefit of the IIS travelling community.

I'm pleased to confirm the latest tour with Fred Watson to view the Aurora Borealis in Scandinavia, February 2012.

Current activity in the atmosphere is creating some of the most amazing skies for several years and with the solar maximum predicted in 2012 the tour to Scandinavia in February is looking superb.


Be captivated by some of the images at: http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap101124.html and http://www.spaceweather.com/


The tour, as in previous years, will be hosted by Fred Watson and managed by Insight Vacations taking in some of the most interesting astronomical areas of Scandinavia and allowing plenty of opportunity to view the Aurora Borealis.

Further information about the tour can be found at: http://www.fredwatson.com.au/spirits_in_the_sky.pdf

Don’t miss out – only 6 places remain!!

Sounds like a fantastic tour. I'd love to see the Aurora one day.
