Yes, I know. So did pretty much the entire population of the UK and most of the US, too. You’re probably sick of posts about the lights. But we saw them and it was just incredible.

On Friday, Tim and I were driving back from our friend Jen’s house in Teeside when I scrolled on Facebook and a friend down in Kent posted a picture of the Northern Lights. I started looking out the window while Tim was driving, but as we were on a main road there was a lot of light polution, but I managed to see a few faint streaks of green, so we decided to pull off the road and go down a dark country lane until we could no longer see any lights and we just observed. With the naked eye, we could definitely see green and blue streaks. Tim’s camera took better images than mine, so I’ll include his as well as mine. It was amazing. It was a once in a lifetime chance and something that Tim had never seen before in his life (I saw them when I was in a Northern part of Canada years ago).

To our surprise when we got home, we could see them from our driveway! More images were taken, and as it was already well past 1 in the morning, we stayed awake a little longer and I went outside around 3 and it was even brighter than it had been.

Seriously, what an incredible sight to see.
