    Vistafjord
    by globetrott
    Get out into the landscape, watch the birds - like the puffins here

    Get the best out of the rough weather here on the Faroe Islands and be happy for every tiny moment of sunshine...

    ... and be prepared to have heavy waves on your way forward to Iceland

    Due to a lot of rainfalls and the influence of the Golf-stream the vegetation is rather heavy...
    .
    This is another pic I have scanned out of a SUPER-8 -film - ( the pic is about 10% of a normal slide )

    Thorshavn is a modern city in many ways but you always see these old houses in between the modern architecture - and these grass-roofs always looked great...

    What a great idea to cover a house - these natural tiles certainly won't let any water or wind into the house !

    Car License Plates
    by MikeAtSea
    Somehow the Faroe's are part of Denmark, but then again they are not. Hence the cars that are licenses on the Faroe Islands have their own license plates. License plate of the Faroe Islands as issued after 1996. It has the nation code FO, the Flag of the Faroes, and a number consisting normally of two letters followed by three numbers.
