saw my first aurora !

Hi all,

Just thought I'd post a quick note about a nice surprise I had early this
morning. I left Sanford Airport in Florida yesterday afternoon at 17.30
(local time) and began the flioght back home to good old blighty. Just
happened to look north out of the window while we were somewhere over the
Greenland / Iceland area (cant remember as I was tired) and I could see a
beautiful green aurora with the Plough shining through. It must have
stretched over 90 degrees from left to right and was a great first sight for
me, especially as the dawn over the Atlantic was equally beautiful just a
couple of hours later.

Next time I will keep my camera in my hand luggage !
