C-day 7 Nuuk

 With the ship waiting for parts they arranged a day of alternate activities for us. For the morning it was a boat trip across the bay to a whale area.


It turned out to be quite choppy and windy so we just went to the back of one island…


….where there was a minke whale skeleton



The way back was with the wind behind so not so cold and wet…



Nonetheless, everyone was pleased when we got back to the ship.

In the afternoon the boys did an 8 km hike into the mountains behind Nuuk (the black dotted line)


Some excellent scenery, flowers, lakes and fungi - looking back over Nuuk city


Rounding a high lake


Lunch stop


Heading down again






Final leg above a lovely beach


Good news on our return. The parts for the boat had arrived and the divers were in the water fitting them. Sailing again later tonight.
