I think I’ll aim to use up my snowy and dark Norway shots in July & August, in hopes maybe it’ll help friends sweltering in hot summer weather appreciate the seasons a bit. Including myself, though sweltering hot remains, mercifully, a rare weather pattern here in A’dam specifically. Last from our short port call at Finnsnes in January.
Though our port call in Finnsnes was only about 30 minutes (meaning I had 15 minutes to walk the waterfront since we had to be back on board 15 minutes before departure), I was determined to see this statue below, of a seafaring Viking known to Norwegians as Ottar who traveled the world. We’d attended the lecture on Vikings earlier that day and were told one of his legacies is this statue in our next port call :-). Pretty sure this is the same guy known elsewhere as Othere, whose exploits you can explore here, should you wish.
(so much world, so little time....)
