16th of February the Sun was first time over the horizon since 26th of October. Unfortunately I haven't yet got a chance to see it - I have needed to be satisfied with a pink stripe on the top of the Hiorthfjellet, the mountain facing to Longyearbyen. It's not yet possible to see the Sun down in the valleys but you need to go up on some mountain. Sometimes it's boring to be a working person... But it's just imaging how quickly days are getting longer. A week ago we didn't have any Sun, now we're already having it from 9:30am to almost 3pm. Just one month more and then we're having longer days than people in more south!

The town is still in a shadow, but we can admire pink colour in the top of the mountains. |

The southern sides of the mountains have got a pink coloration. |
