Faroes

From Legoland, we flew straight to Faroe Islands.

We picked up a car (and some of us picked up some sleep time, having left the resort fairly early in the morning), and drove into town.



 Torshavn, the capital, boasts itself as "one of the smallest capitals in the world", where "life moves at a civilised pace". It is small, easy and certainly beautiful. We had sushi for our first meal in the Faroes. Salmon sushimi was, unsurprisingly, melt-in-your-mouth divine!

Lots of real life ones of these to be seen in the islands...

Visited the northern parts of Esturoy island - short hikes and dramatic coastal scenery...





And it never gets dark! View from our apartment at 11:30pm.

We wound up coming back to the apartment after T managed to wet her socks and shoes (yes, it is 12 degrees feeling like 8 in the wind at some of these coastlines!)... and ended up building a Lego Doctor Who Tardis as our evening activity. Fun!
