Yes I enjoyed that programme too Lawrence.
Just before last Christmas I was sat in our doctor's waiting room when I noticed a magazine that had a picture of the aurora on the front cover, so I ended up reading the article.
It was a caravaning magazine and the article was about this chap who tested out this particular caravan by taking it to Sweden on a Northern Lights holiday. He started out in Blackpool and ended up in a caravan site in Bjurholm, Northern Sweden that specialises in that sort of thing.
I made a note of the website if you're interested; www.angsjonscamping.se
He made his journey in just about two days, going via road to the east coast, taking the ferry over to Denmark, then over a connecting elevated highway (that I've forgotten the name of) that spans the Baltic to Sweden.
He camped there for about a week and saw a spectacular Northern Lights display on his very first evening there!
So what you were thinking about is definitely possible.
Regards
