A bit of motor sailing took us under an overcasted sky further along the Lofoten mountain panorama. The colour scheme changed from former base bluish over the recent days to pastel greyish. Upon arrival in Henningsvær it had both elements. Our mooring is right in the city centre, busy and safe as shown on the photo.

A routine check, friendly and professional.

Susan called ORCAS as she spotted them first. It was at a distance but the fins clearly visible through the binoculars. We could even determine male and female from the difference in shape. It was a big pod slightly split but most likely being one group. There shall be more whales in the Vestfjorden later in the year.

We also saw a big dolphin crossing our bowline, which became less spectacular under these circumstances.

Time to explore Henningsvær and its surroundings over the next couple of days.

Fair winds…
