On the boat again: we booked rooms for us in Pyramiden for two nights to explore the ghost town's surroundings at our own leisure. There was a thick fog on the way there, but many puffins flew out of the fog to do a few laps around M/S Polargirl before disappearing back into the fog. The local arctic fox did its standard routes in the downtown Pyramiden (whenever the gaggles of tourists were out of the town).
