Hello, My name is Jenna and I go to St. Marks Catholic School in Florida. I have a question for you. I just wanted to know if you saw the Northern lights and what are they like in person? Thank you!

Thanks for the question Jenna! While the norther lights are overhead right now, I can't see them because we will have 24 hours of daylight the entire time I'm here. I'm writing this reply at 11:15 PM and it looks like the middle of the day outside! I did get to see the northern lights when I was in Fairbanks, Alaska this February. Check out my journal from February 7 to read more about it! http://www.polartrec.com/expeditions/predatory-spiders-in-the-arctic-foo... It is one impressive light show!
