Monday Faroe Islands Sørvágur

Breakfast at 8.00, leave the hotel on foot at 9.15 and walked down to the harbor for the boat trip to the island of Mykines. Unfortunately it was not running, too rough off shore. Meandered back to the hotel to meet at 12.00. Saw a Gray Wagtail on the school roof by the church. The church was black, and had external vertical shutters with pegs to hold the shutters up. Could not go into the church as it was locked. (By the end of the week we were able to enter only one church.) The church inside was sparse, but had a large chandelier and a model boat hanging up. This again was common in most of the churches.

In one garden saw ducks, and a dead, strung-up gull tied to the wires of the duck pen. Presumably to frighten of other gulls. No real lunch, just some bars of caramel, and a beer.
