Day 4 - August 24, 2013 Illulissat, Greenland

August 24, 2013

Illulissat, Greenland

Illulissat is about 120 miles north of artic circle with population of 5,000. It is summer now in the area with no snow on the ground. The weather is pleasant. When we visited Greenland in 2010 around April, it was mostly covered by snow. The name of city means Iceberg. The boat tour of iceberg is spectacular to say the least.

View from hotel balcony. Arrive to see the sunset. Correction, pre-sunset. The sunset is actually 11:30 pm and sunrise at 2:00 am.
