| Another picture taken from the boat. If you ever find yourself on a cruise ship surrounded by hundreds of old people, you will probably soon discover that taking a picture of a flag is one of the most exciting entertainment options available. | We were lucky to see the rainbow on a couple of occasions.

| I am not quite sure where I took this picture, but it certainly is an idyllic location. However, I have heard that the village has very limited options in terms of movie theatres and ethnic restaurants. It probably is not a place to settle down permanently. | We basically climbed up the heap of stones seen the middle of this picture. The purpose of the trip was to visit a small mountain hut. You probably need to be one of my family members or have a severe brain disorder to understand why anyone would climb up there. |

A combination of high suicide rates (due to depression during winter) and cold weather should scare anyone away from moving there. | Then again, visiting during summer is highly recommended. The small mountain that we climbed was only about 700 meters high, but it feels much higher due to the sparse vegetation. |
