We spent two very nice days in Kangerlussuaq, with warm summer temperatures (+20 centigrades!) in very beatifull surroundings. On Sunday we rented bikes and explored the whole area. We saw some wildlife and most interesting we spotted 20 very large moscus! In the evenings we got very nice meals at the local restaurants. The people living in Kangerlussuaq were also friendly and helpfull, and we had all a good time. We spoke a lot with the other expedtition which came down at the same time, cheers to Charlie, Bjørn and Ronnie!

On Monday 4th June we all left Greenland on different flights to Copenhagen, Denmark, and further on from there.
We will be back with an extensive report from the trips in some days, but in the meantime I´ve put up som pictures.
