Magical
I’ve lived the first 25 years of my life in Finland, and the past 6 years in Sweden. It may sound odd, but I have never seen the northern lights in those 31 years. It has really started to bother me, so I was determined to finally see the light show this year. I knew that tonight was a great chance because of the big solar flare, and the weather was clear, even if the wind was blowing heavy.

There I stood, at my viewpoint, my eyes wide with amazement when I looked at the pale green aurora arch across the northern sky, with the stars of the Big Dipper shining brightly above. Just when I thought that it couldn’t get any more beautiful, a shooting star flashed below the ‘Dipper. I didn’t even make a wish - I didn’t have to. My dream had just come true.
