Reindeer, Huskies and Northern Lights


I'm having an amazing time in Norway. At night I've been treated to several sightings of the Northern Lights. Yesterday during the brief hours of daylight I went husky sledding and visited a reindeer park.

One of my photos shows a white reindeer. These are very rare and are considered lucky by the Sami people. Gabba is the Sami for white reindeer. Another photo shows a tent of the kind used by the Sami when they followed the herds of reindeer through the seasons.
