Dark Season Blues Festival and NORTHERN LIGHTS!!!!

This weekend, Longyear had a big festival on to celebrate the dark season approaching! I got offered to help at the festival so i could get in for free (it was £50 otherwise!). It was such a laugh, 9 other UNIS students helped as well and we had to sell tickets and watch the back stage door! Easy work! :D We also got free t-shirts to wear!!! The music was really good and there was around 500 people there! It was nice to see all the locals, as we don't really mix with them at all. It was also funny seeing drunk Norwegians, they are not like the British at all! They all showed up completely drunk, but caused no trouble at all... just continued to get drunk!! If that was Britain there would have been a fight or an argument.. but there was nothing!! I was very impressed! :) I also got to have my picture taken with Bobby Jones- the head liner! His body guard wasn't happy about this though!! :-S

Half way through the night we got a text saying the Northern Lights were seen Trondheim and when we went and looked we saw them too!!!!! It was amazing... i was jumping about like a looney and the locals were laughing at me because they are so used to seeing them!! It was like a big green V mark across the sky, im going out again tonight to see if i can see them again! :D
