Fjord swimming

On Sunday, October 2, we toured the museums of Stavanger and enjoyed the canning museum the most. First Sunday of the month they have demonstrations (and samples) of the canning of herring. Before oil was discovered in the North Sea, herring was the chief industry of
Stavanger and when the wind blew the wrong way, all you could smell was herring.

We walked home the fjord route – another beautiful day – and Larry went skinny-dipping at the nearby fjord beach. The water is still warmer than the bay at Dennis at the end of August.
