Qaqortoq is a town in Southern Greenland with About 3500 inhabitants and the fourth largest in the Country. We arrived in heavy fog, but luckily it lifted to a beautiful sunny day where we tendered to town. As you can see from the photos it is a hilly town with colourful buildings in the Danish style. There have been masses of icebergs and the one you see has been the biggest so far. One thing you are warned about in Greenland are the Mosquitos so insect repellant is crucial.
We managed to get through with very limited internet to phone our grand daughter Annabelle who is nine today and were fortunate to be on the phone when they sang her happy birthday song immediately after the line dropped out. Inter net is very limited so difficult to blog at present.
