Graves of the commanders of the North Fleet died in a plane crash.

And no Russian town can be without Lenin of course.

And this is the headquarters of the North Fleet.

The North simply fascinates with its severe beauty.

Location: Severomorsk

 

[nrbhayo]

And this is another closed town – Polyarny.

 

[nrbhayo]

To get there from Severomorsk you should go aboard a small boat (the white one on the left) which goes there every day from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. The price of the ticket is rather low ($3) and the whole trip will take you 2 hours or so.

It’s early morning. Cold and it seems even ships are still sleeping.

 

[nrbhayo]

Finally the boat has sailed.

 

[nrbhayo]

Even the sun is still sleeping.

 

[nrbhayo]

Nobody’s on the deck as it’s too cold.

 

[nrbhayo]

Beautiful ships are left behind.

A little further is a way out to the Barents Sea.

One can see some rare settlements in the distance.
