A 56th anniversary is worth a special celebration.
We decided to spend the day on the small island Smøla, where my mother had never been before, my father once when he was a boy, another time around 50 years ago.
First part of the celebration was already on the ferry, with coffee and svele, this special "pancake" which is served on all the ferries along the western coast of Norway.
At Veiholmen we ate lunch at Havkroa,
salted fish balls, a local delicacy.
We have been to Havkroa many times, this summer it has new owners,
Terje and I met Ingrid, the chef and one of two owners three weeks ago when we celebrated our anniversary at the same place, this time I asked her for a photo :-)
I will be back at Smøla and Havkroa, again and again,
if only to eat Ingrid´s salted fishballs.
The small island day ended with the outdoor play, Fru Guri av Edøy.
(I have taken you there twice before)
The play is marvellous,
though
the weather was icy cold.
In spite of the cold and the gale wind,
my father 80 and mother 83 never forget to smile.
And a little wind is not a bad thing on an island filled with windmills.
Tomorrow our travel continues,
to another island,
my father´s
birthplace.
