    Wow, amazing pictures ... at 1AM!! You must be further north than me. Denmark is on the 56th latitude. It's a strange feeling that it's light here until about 10.30 PM, although it doesn't really get pitch black at night. I hate the little light we get during winter months, it's be dark at around 4.30.

    Also, it always takes a looong time from light to dark. I'd prefer it like in Spain, it goes dark within 10-15 min.

    What latitude are you on?

    We are on the 61st latitude. Not above the arctic circle. The circle is at 66 latitude. I have been above the circle. You can drive there from here on the Dempster highway(I use the word highway loosely!)

    Great pictures. Did you ever have a problem sleeping in daylight?
    I could never adjust to that.I worked at a computer center once and had
    go to work at midnight & work until 8am which meant sleeping during the
    daylight. Totally awful.

    .
    I don't have any problem with it. Stuart sometimes does. We have darkening shades in our bedroom. We both sometimes have problems remembering to go to bed! Alot of Northerns are sleep deprived in the summer! There's just so much to do and all that light to work by!
