This was no ordinary cruise. With stunning scenery, midnight sunshine, huge glaciers, dense drift ice, Fin Whales, Polar Bears, Walruses, Reindeer, Arctic Foxes and star birds like Grey Phalarope, Little Auk, Brünnich's Guillemot, Pomarine Skua, and Glaucous, Ivory, Sabine's and Ross's Gulls, Spitsbergen is out of this world.
