The trip to Nuuk was quite unpleasant since we had to deal with fog and headwind. Even though we had nice sights of the Fredrikshåb Isblink later the fog had us again and we had to tack into nasty headwind. Since this has been accompanied by our concern that we might not see an iceberg during these conditions we briefly stopped in Fiskenæsset fjord to have a rest. In the fjord within the range of a few miles the rather strong wind stopped, the fog disappeared miraculously and the moon shone clearly above the calm waters. From now on we observed frequently that the weather “outside” can be quite different from close to shore and especially in the fjords.
We returned to the previous nastiness when we moved out of the fjord in order to proceed to Nuuk. In the approach to the Godshåbs Fjord the fog cleared and we beheld the beautiful approach to Nuuk in nice bright sunlight.
