A postcard from our time thus far in Svalbard aboard Paragon with Drake, Mo, and Éanna reunited!
I used to love ‘Where the Sidewalk Ends’ by Shel Silverstein when I was a child for all its wonder and absurdity and pure fun. And what a question…what lies beyond the end of the sidewalk, or road, or horizon.
What lies beyond?
I suppose I can answer that with one word. Svalbard. This land is unlike anything that we have encountered on our travels, both for it’s untamed spirit and its fragility.
It is a challenging place on the top of the world that demands much, but also rewards greatly. A punishing day at sea, with winds that whip your breath away with a gasp, is rewarded later with the most spectacular glacier that seems to change colour before your eyes.
This is a slice of some of the places we’ve seen thus far on our journey into the arctic and we hope you enjoy!
Fair winds,
Monique & Drake
