Photos of Qaqortoq, Greenland from the ship...

 After I had lunch, the fog lifted.  I took a few more shots from the ship that were without some of the hazy conditions.  I will be going into this colorful town for a walking tour.  The word "Qaqortoq" means "white" in the Greenlandic language.


Folks getting on and off the tenders at the dock in Qaqortoq.

Several ships have moved in and out of the port today.

One of the tenders making its way to the dock.

The homes perched on the side of the mountain are so colorful.

There's no bad view from the city of Qaqortoq.

This is an aerial view from the mountains looking down at Qaqortoq.  I didn't take this photo, but the view looks toward the harbor.  The ship is docked in the waters to the left of the small peninsula mid-picture.
