Faroe Islands, Denmark

Our next destination was the Faroe Islands, 
an archipelago located about halfway between Norway and Iceland.

 Its a lovely secluded place, almost as if set in a different time.


There are quaint thatched roof homes and shops.

These historic buildings house the government offices.

And there's a lovely harbor with many types of boats.

We took a boat to see the cliffs of Vestmanna.
Can you see the sheep on the hillside?

 There were also many stunning waterfalls along the cliffs.

While walking the island, we saw this whalebone archway,
 which is very emblematic of the islands.
Its a beautiful place.
