The name Nanortalik means “place where the polar bears go’, Luckily for us
we didn’t cross paths with any as they have the reputation of being one of the
most dangerous.
This is the second time that we have been to this cute and remote little
village. With a small population of just
over 1000, you are hard-pressed to spot an actual resident when a ship of our
size comes in.
Once again, we just wandered around and enjoyed the open-air Museum. The only thing I missed was the Coffee and cake that was served in the community hall.
For 5 dollars, euros or pounds, you could enjoy a cup of coffee, eat a piece
of cake and enjoy the village choir singing a range of traditional songs.
We tendered to a different spot this time around
The following displays how picturesque this small village is... Sometimes it is hard to tell which buildings belong to the museum and those that are actually lived in.... usually there are some telltale signs around the gardens.
above is a rock you can climb up for a 360 view.... below is an example of the view.

An example of one of the earliest homes.... basically just one room
Above is the supermarket where we bought our takeaway coffee and cake!

These two little girls were having a ball collecting a lot of little trinkets from all the guests.
Below are photos of the Cemmetry that sits by the water's edge
Walked into the only pub in town and who should we find!! ... so we joined them..
As it was just a short distance to Qaqortoq, so we sailed straight up there and were treated to more wonderful iceberg formations
