[Paddlewise] Midnight Sun Navigatio Question

Yesterday I was in a discussion with someone who claimed that in the summer
above the artic circle the sun traverses the northern horizon.  I thought it
should be traversing to the south.  Can any of the northern Paddlewisers
answer the question?  My expectation is that the sun would appear to travel
from east to west, low to the southern horizion at Midnight and high at
Noon.

Curious minds want to know.
