Beautiful Norwegian scenery on a trip from Narvik to the Nordnorsk Båtmuseum (North Norwegian Boat Museum) in Gratangen. Followed by waffles and coffee at the historic Foldvik Brygger restaurant! (20 October 2026). #Norway #landscape

The Atlantic Sea Park in Ålesund is well worth a visit. Highlights include the Great Atlantic Tank full of fish, otters on an island, and a breeding programme of Humboldt penguins. #Norway #fish

Always a pleasure to lecture for @cunardline. This time on Queen Anne chasing the Northern Lights in Norway. Very successful with some spectacular Aurora Borealis both at sea and in Narvik. #astronomy #aurora #cruiselife

One for @afneil! HMS Dauntless (D33) - a type 45 air-defence destroyer. Photographed from @cunardline Queen Anne in the North Sea on 14 October. So, that's at least one warship actively deployed. #ships #Navy
