In the day around <a href=\"https:\/\/bashingtonpost.com\/index.php\/2017\/02\/15\/tromso-norway\/\">Tromso<\/a>&nbsp;it was around -5 and when we were out exploring the lowest recorded temperature -16. This was recorded first thing in the morning. Temperatures at night were about -10 in the city and&nbsp;around -12&nbsp;further out.<\/p>\n<p>We were extremely lucky with the weather whilst we were in Norway, clear conditions meant that there was not a cloud in sight and the blue skies complimented the&nbsp;thick white snow&nbsp;creating the perfect picture (even on a smart phone!) The views&nbsp;are breathtaking, regardless of whether you are&nbsp;at the top of a mountain or in a supermarket car park&nbsp;at the side of the road.<\/p>\n<p>Below are some of the pictures we
