After an incredible sunset at Gasadalur in the Faroe Islands, my friends and I headed to the airport to get WiFi to check the stats that show the likelihood of us seeing the aurora as there had been reports that it was going to happen on that night. With the stats looking good we rushed off to the nearest shop for food then headed back to Gasadalur and waited it out til dark. Unfortunately the lights never fully got going but there was a glowing green band in the sky all night that got brighter as the night went on and was pretty incredible to witness. This was an amazing night, definitely one I'll never forget.
