Before I go any futher, just thought I would mention that George has managed to lose yet another pair of readers. At a pair about a week, this is becoming rather annoying. I will be so glad when he is able to see his optometrist when we are home and gets a proper pair of glasses. He hasn’t functioned without glasses in decades and just isn’t used to keeping track of glasses for reading when he no longer needs them for reading…
Anyway – here is the Wiki link for our town today .We sailed up the 11 mile Fjord this morning with green going up on both sides, and more than the occasional waterfall appearing out of the cliff sides part of the way up. The town itself is only about 700 people. There are the requests church, school, government building, and shops. We skipped tours out to waterfalls and instead wandered around town and walked to the other side of the fjord to see both the ship and town.
All the rest of the photos are still on my camera (yes, I really brought a real camera with and my wrists are certainly complaining). We wandered back on ship after a few hours and headed back up to the lounge to relax.
Once again we crossed the Arctic Circle late in the evening. The ship decided to hold a “Blue Nose” ceremony. Never heard of that before (and have been on more than one ship that have made that particular venture) so I was going to go watch – but the Compass Rose (smaller of their two public rooms) was crammed and I decided that there was no way I wanted to be jammed in with that many and headed back to the cabin….
