Tromsø – Narvik: Kayaking Winter (Travel Journal)

Day 3

We start early. Packing and dressing goes much faster. Martins neoprene gloves and shoes got wet yesterday and are frozen overnight. His hands and feet cool super fast. Every movement of the cold body parts hurts him.
It is still very windy. But we paddle to the west and make good progress in the lee of the huge promontory. We paddle about 19 kilometers. It is mostly cloudy throughout the day. Every now and then the sun comes out. It is about – 5 degrees.
We camp near a small village on the property of an elderly gentleman.
