<p>Day Three on MS Trollfjord ...
</p><p>Today we carried on north up and around to Kirkenes. The temperature grew colder, although up until Kirkenes it was still not too raw.
</p><p>The ship made three short stops during the night and early morning, at Båtsfjord, Vardø and Vadsø.
</p><p>We drew into Kirkenes at 09:00, just after breakfast. We had until 12:30 to explore the town.
</p>
Excursions were offered at all the longer stops, but they were a little out of our budget ... there was plenty to see at each stop anyway. At Kirkenes there was the chance to see the border with Russia, which is only a few miles away. Another excursion was to see the Snow Hotel ... that would have been quite interesting. One for next time!
