Whakaputaina: 11.08.2017
At 2:30 in the morning, the loudspeaker announcement wakes me up that the car deck is now open and all passengers who want to leave the ship in Tórshavn should go to their vehicles. As mentioned before, I spent the night on Deck 8 in the Sky Bar. So all I had to do was get up and step outside into the pouring rain to take the planned photo.
Meanwhile, the heaters under the Sky Bar shelter had been turned off, but it was still warm enough to spend the rest of the night up here.
I wake up in time for breakfast, dig out my toiletries from my backpack, and find the nearest restroom. Dieter also shows up and we have breakfast together. I'm not really hungry yet, but two fried eggs, some bacon, and a yogurt are always good. The day is just drifting along. I occasionally change my position from the 'Naust' on Deck 5 to Deck 8. Fresh air cannot be replaced by anything else.
There's not much variety, the Shetlands are shrouded in fog, seagulls glide alongside the Norröna for minutes without flapping their wings, caught in the wake of the wind.
We pass by an oil rig and in the evening we say goodbye to a beautiful sunset. That's it. Incredibly exciting.
