Bridge

 Connecting the island Mykines (with the lighthouse) to the main island.

The way out

The only way to get off this island are with the ferry, which goes twice a day at 11am and 5pm. Or by helicopter every second day.

Wish the boat would go a little more often, but can't do anything about that...

Sheep

Sheep sheep... sheep everywhere. The whole island is pretty much used for sheep grazing and the people living here make a living out of taking care of them for other people.

The lighthouse

The hike to the lighthouse is the most popular tourist route, and it is, even I have to admit, quite spectacular.

 The hike is about 1-2h depending on how much you stop to take pictures, but it's quite a straining one which goes up and down steep cliffs. Nothing too heavy though.

The pictures do it no justice though, since you can't seem to judge the true height you're at from them.

I ate sheep rectum stuffed with sheep... Don't say I'm not trying to embrace the culture!


They eat a lot of sheep meat here...

Drinking

Dear me, the faroese drink... A LOT. At last night's party we were literally swimming in alcohol (seriously the floor was covered). I thought Finnish people drink a lot, but we don't even come close.

Also, in a drunk weak moment I ate whale meat wrapped in whale blubber. Urgh!

Jogging route

This is one of the standard paths to walk. I tried to jog, had blood taste in my mouth by the time I got up the hill. Thought I would puke a few minutes later. Decided to walk so that I wouldn't fall over the edge...
