Sisimiut

We docked in the lovely town of Sisimiut (formerly known as Holstenborg). We were able to go ashore and visited, mainly, the older part of town with its various museum buildings - boat house, blacksmith, old chuch that has been restored, sod house reconstruction and a house that was the museum office and shop, and 2 houses that were museums. We also took a walk up the hill to a large church, but it wasn't open, unfortunately.

We were a bit pressed for time because we were booked to go on an organised 3.5-hour hike at lunchtime, and we had to be back on time. It was raining so we decided not to go. waterproofs are not so waterproof! We managed to cancel our place on the hike . We noticed quite a few names were scratched out on the list - others had cancelled, too!

After lunch, we sat in the hot tub for a while, a bit longer than we had anticipated. It didn't matter because we weren't going anywhere else.

The Venture is now waiting for the last guests to board, and then we will sail towards Kangerlussuaq.Leggi altro
