A day at the beach

The island is lined in golden sand and turquise waters. So today we spend a couple hours splashing in the mini-surf. Otherwise we just jump off the anchored boat. Ørnulf thinks that the less sand invading "Babette" the better. He is basically anti-beach.

In the evening the "Bonanza" boys invite all the Scandinavians down to the pier wall for a barbeque. We pack white fish in olive oil, sliced onions, leek, tomatoes and lemon, s&p,fish-herbs, all into foil and dinghy over to the pier. Another Norwegian boat, from Kongsberg, "Galadriell" is there, too. They include a 6 year old girl and an 8 year old boy. As it grows dark the 8 year old finds his head-lamp and a good boulder to sit on and enjoy his "Donald Duck" comics. "Senda"from Oslo in Norway, "Najaden" from Denmark, and Swedish"Blue Marlin", we're all gathered around the glowing grill, in the moonshine .

It's pitch dark now, but we can hear the soft surf as we eat our sandy fish and rolls.
