Lofoten Islands

The ship drop us off at the small village of Å (last letter of Norwegian alphabet). We travel the island chain by bus from south to north.

After having learnt the history of Tørrfisk in Å, a brief photo stop in beautiful Reine, we arrived at Nusfjord

After lunch, we proceeded to Borg where we visited the Lofotr Viking Museum, followed by Henningsvær for a walk around the town and cod drying on the racks
