This
morning we had a landing in Hvalrossodden. This place is a former Danish
trapper station built in 1920. And it was used for this purpose until the
1960’s. Today it is being maintained by the Sirius Patrol.
Again
we had snow and ice all over the place.
This time it was a sandy beach though,
not rocky like yesterday. The water was freezing and us standing at the landing
site ended up with frozen pants as well, but while all passengers were walking
around enjoying the weather and their walk, we were drinking hot chocolate and
dancing on the beach! During the afternoon we arrived in Danmarkshavn. This was
our last stop in Greenland and we had beautiful weather! The sun was shining
and even though it was a bit windy.
No one complained. Again we had snow all
over and we were greated by the six residents on the station and their three
dogs as well. This was a nice welcome.
This
evening we had MV Frams famous crew show! Crew were singing and dancing and the
passengers had a small surprise when they saw to familiar faces from the
expedition team during the ballroom dance. Tessa and i (Majken) was dancing as
well. So all in all, this was a very nice last day in Greenland. We are now ending
the Greenland season and are about to cross over to Svalbard.
