Great day on the Vestfjorden with the Lofoten Islands in the distance. No need for freeze dried expedition meals on this training trip. The fjord is full of fish dinner was caught as usual.

After climbing the Hamarøy Peak (seen on picture) we entered the kayaks on low tide. 

Blue mussels appeared and we could fill the boats!

Took the chance of not calling the poison-information… Made a nice fire, put the mussels in a big pot with a few cups of white wine and garlic. What a meal! Was watching Per-Thore as he ate like crazy…Hoping… But no, we are both still breathing so mussels seems to be  OK.

You always get that stone-age-man-feeling when catching your own food. Unfortunately we cannot expect to live on the land at Spitzbergen.
