The sun sinks in front of us, glowing in the polar lake, only to rise again, soon. Directly below us we see, through a break in the clouds, the little hut. Through the telescope we recognize a chimney and we smile. By the time the experience ends, it is after midnight. A single star beams in the sky.
Birds move toward the south.
It is here that our dreams of the ultimate Thule experience have been fulfilled. Thule, the legendary island of paradise, is in the North Atlantic. For a second, we feel as if we are mythological heroes and with the achievement of many kilometers behind us, we leave the fjord. One more time, against the wind, we must walk over 20 kilometers of rough terrain. Water from hot springs bubbles from the surface of the earth, covering the glittering snow of the Kaldbakur Mountain.
