We flew to Iceland just to see the Northern Lights.
My mom said there's no chance of seeing it.
We stayed up all night yesterday. We didn't see it.

This is the last day. We're going to take a quick drive right now and see if we can see anything.
...what the roads look like and it's starting to snow.

I'm playing myself into being like: "is that a pattern?" "Is that a green light?"

We're going to go home and we're going to stay up all night. It's 10:55. Some people are seeing it in Iceland. It's like... so faint, but they are seeing it...
On the road yet again, one-hour drive. We're going to this hotel that has like a live camera and it looks like they can see it.

We're here and we saw a tour guide here, like a tour company here. So I think this is the spot. Let's see.
We are seeing!! Oh my God.
