      Thanks Graham, glad you enjoyed it. It certainly was a great place for a swim, if a little on the chilly side!

    Another great video. I can't believe the weather is so good, although a bit cold as one would expect. And the near-nude scene was done in the best possible taste as Kenny Everett used to say.😀

      Air temperature a bit fresh but when you were in the sunny it was sublime. Told you he kept his pants on🤣

    I'll never get tired of watching these nordic landscapes.
    Thanks for this video, it's the perfect happy ending for a hard week.
    I would probably not go for that dive in the Arctic Sea, but I want to dip my feet on that :-)

      Thank you for your comment Ted. The whole trip has been incredible. Such beauty throughout the area and we are quite envious of your autumn trip. It will be fabulous.

    Stunning video! Just love following your fabulous journeys 😍 I had to postpone my Scandinavia trip as my daughter is getting married.. you are helping me fine tune my trip 🙏
    Don’t know that I’ll be going swimming in 6° water though 🥶😱
    You’re a brave man Ben 😊

      Hey Monique. Great to hear from you. Can’t wait to see the wedding photos. Scandinavia was amazing so hopefully you will get there eventually. I wasn’t brave enough to go in the sea…happy to stick to warm water for swimming! Thanks for watching. Sarah x

    Sarah and Ben, I'm really enjoying catching up on your trip, as a recent subscriber I am slowly working my way back through your trip episode by episode (although some times not in the correct order.....sorry my bad)
    the scenery and your photography together are just brilliant, Norweigan tourist board should take you pair on the payroll as you show the beauty of the place,
    Can I ask what Drone you are using as the drone shots are superb?
    I had not considered a Nordic trip but after watching some of the other vloggers (Alex Frood and Adz Ventures) I thought the -30c odd was a bit chilly for us, but then your trip mid April seems to get the best of both worlds,
    Keep up the good content and looking forward to future adventures

      Thanks for your kind words and for watching. It really is an amazing place and I think we really hit on the perfect time to go there. If you’ve seen our Arctic summary video you’ll know why we went then. We would advise anybody to go in March/April to see some incredible sights and to avoid the crowds. Note however, someone we know said we were incredibly lucky with the weather we had at Vardo and Hornoya so it’s not necessarily how we found it.
      We’re on a little break from travelling at the moment while we prepare for Canada and Alaska next year. Lots to do.
      Thanks again, Sarah & Ben.

      Sorry I forgot to mention the drone. It’s a DJI Mavic 2 pro, about 5 years old now. So, it’s by no means the latest. They can pretty much all produce decent video, but I often shoot in dlog and colour grade it afterwards which helps bring out some contrast and colour.
      Thanks again for watching, Ben.

      @@diamondsontour Thanks for the info on the drone, I have just watched the episode with the football pitch and the drone footage is really impressive,
      Looking forward to the Canada and Alsaka trip

    Well seen snow this week myself not quite as much as yours but looking up at mountains in Bavaria as on my annual cycle tour with brothers this week. See you having great time but swim in Artic guess has to be done but nuts lol x

      Great to hear from you Rob. Envy you the fabulous scenery but not so much the bike tour, although I think maybe you are on electric bikes…that would be good. Hope you are having a great time. Only Ben was nuts enough to go into the Artic sea, my feet were firmly planted on the beach! Thanks for watching and commenting. Sarah xx

    Great video, I bet you could go up Reinebringen duo to weather conditions not sure how the steps where looking alike but the winter was pretty much over. Good cold water plunge.

      Hi Alex. The guy in the hiking shop said that 4 people had been rescued from there the day before we were there and he said it was very dangerous. We are very happy to take that local advice and get the shot with the drone instead.
      Thanks for watching. Sarah & Ben.
