Smally but tasty bufet at the hotel. Good muesli. Good melon. Two kinds of picked herring.
Had the hotel book us our spots on the Puffin Express, and took a taxi to the harbor, because we had run out of walking time.
The Puffin Express turned out to be pretty low key, two young guys running a 50-year old wooden boat that had once been a small inter-island passenger ferry. It was just us and three other families, one of which was from Ashland. We saw lots of puffins. The captain had Lulu steer the boat most of the way back to the harbor; she enjoyed that.
In the afternoon we went to the Saga Museum, on a hill top a ways from the center, and looked at very realistic wax figures of ancient Vikings, many doing horrible things to each other, such as chopping off heads because of religious disagreements.
It sprinkled a little, but all in all, it was a fine day.
Our after-dinner walk back to the hotel took us through the new modern cathedral at the top of the hill, where a young pregnant woman was playing ferocious music on the giant organ.
Now we must sleep, to rest up for the very long day we will have tomorrow, traveling home.
