I would if I could. I've only seen pictures and videos. Oh, what I'd give to go see the northern lights just once! Plus, it'd give me an excuse to visit Canada.

Mhmm no I haven't. But supposedly tonight (at the time of writting) something is supposed to happen and we might be able to see it :/

I went to Alaska years ago and I didn't see any Northern Lights.

Saw glaciers though!

They're supposed to be breathtaking... I've never seen them, though. I'd love to go somewhere someday and see them. Where are some good places to look for them?
...Don't say 'the sky', or I'll have to smack you. =P

For the Northern Lights: Alaska, Canada, Russia, sometimes the furthest north parts of the United States, northern UK, Norway, places like that.
For the Southern Lights: Southern South America, Antarctica (duh), southern Australia, southern New Zealand, South Africa, places like that.

I do live in Norway, but I`ve never been far enough North to be able to see the Northen lights.
EDIT: Just realized I spelled the name of my own country wrong. Epic typo fail.

Never even heard of them, nor seen them. xD I couldn't even see them from where I live anyway.
