It was swinging in the night, but the weather was nice when we reached Lerwick – the capital of Shetland Islands in the morning. Do you remember? Years ago I landed on the South Shetland islands in Antarctica! But here I am for the first time. Lerwick is little (7,500 people) town, but is is very atmospheric with its narrow streets and stone houses, There is Fort Charlotte with old cannons to visit and some small churches. Shetlands are famous for the wool products – they have plenty of black sheeps here. Many small fishing boats in the port, nice people – I took a long walk around. In the middle of the day lovely sun appeared. It the tourist office very few visitors – this place is far from the beaten track! In the night we are turning south -to the Atlantic – it will be warmer and warmer each day, I believe. Greetings from the norther tip of Britain!
