Next to the picturesque fisherman's house you can see one of the famous vine trees, and a relatively young one, since they hibernate each winter for the first 60 years till they mature: they gather strength, juices and develop their famous vine-like roots and start growing tall in earnest. They are expected to live more than 800 years and reach heights of 1400-1600 feet.

The Canyon Fjord
I love how a trip up every gloomy, abysmal fjord ends with a nice surprise of discovering a friendly habitation. This fjord lives up to its name, the Canyon Fjord. Unlike Scandinavian fjords which a re wide, this fjords is very typical - only 5 miles long and no more than 25 meters wide. The island's overcrowding is felt even at this forbidding place - people built into the cliffs.
