The photo on the left is of the two mountains opposite Longyearbyen, Adventtoppen and Hiorthfjellet. They looked quite nice in the sunshine after the snow. The picture on the right is of the remains of a German bomber that was destroyed by an English plane during World War 2. We saw it while we were out on a Geography excursionin Adventdalen. Apparently the bomber broke its propellers after landing, and then it taxied into an ice wedge!! While they were waiting for replacement props, the English plane found it and destroyed it.
