Qaqortoq, Greenland: Try saying this town's name without giggling!


So I can officially say I've been to Greenland now because I actually stepped onto land today. It's a small town, but it's probably the biggest town Greenland has.
Cute town though right? Almost looks like toy houses!
The local village kids. Soooo cute! I just had to take a picture with them!


They all came running out of school to meet the cruise ship people. They were so excited to meet us!


This is the only fountain in Greenland! I guess all the other fountains would be frozen.

Hehe! I got a kick out of this picture! Doesn't it look like the boys are peeing into the fountain? Look at the height of the water spray coming out!





Their only church in town.
Andrea J: They even have a separate church for little people. You would have felt welcome here:)
I climbed up to the highest point of their town to get a panoramic view of their gorgeous scenery.


I'm telling ya, the houses look like toy gingerbread homes!

Damn it, my fat head's blocking the cruise ship behind me!

Look, I managed to take a photo with the local kids! I blend in perfectly! Can you tell where I am?


Greenland kids rock!


We only had 3 hours on shore because there's nothing to do...time to go home!


On our way back, my friend Abby wanted to take a picture of Isabelle and I. I didn't smile so Abby says, "That's not the face of someone who's been to Greenland!"
I replied, "No, you're right! This is the face of someone who has been to Greenland!"...
This is the face of someone who was just in Greenland because I'm frozen over from the freakin' cold! Classic!
Next stop, New York City Baby!!!!! I get to use my own money again soon! WOOHOO!

Wow, those kids look so stylish. I didn't know they had a Baby Gap in Greenland.

That look's really cool (literally). Never seen photos of Geenlanders before. I guess people look the same all over the world... Keep smiling
