The Smyril Line Ferry

From Denmark, I caught this ferry to the Faroe Islands:


The good thing: Traveling by ship feels adventurous and exciting.

The bad thing: Already extremely prone to motion sickness, I was so dizzy the entire trip, I couldn't even stand up for more than a few seconds at a time. "We never have weather this bad during the summer!" the guy at the reception desk helpfully told me afterward.

The good thing: It turns out the rocking of a ship, while nauseating if you're standing, is simply lulling if you're lying down. So I went to bed sometime in the afternoon, and slept right through to the next day.

Up next will be... arrival here:
