Klipsi's icebreaker voyage to the North Pole , late July 2008

part 4.  Southbound. Visiting Franz-Josef-Land.

 

north of Franz-Josef-Land, we meet a few old icebergs and get close-up

we also saw some polar bears but from a certain distance.

 

 

 

and then we did lots of landings on various islands of the Franz-Josef-Land archipelago.
