Nuuk, Greenland



It was a beautiful sunny day in Nuuk, though a little on the coolish side.

For some reason, I expected Greenland to be flat. Not so. It reminded us of Newfoundland and Iceland. Not surprising, I suppose, given that all three places are "north", built on rock, and surrounded by ocean.




Brightly coloured homes offset the gray and brown landscape.




In the centre of Nuuk there was a state-of-the-art cultural centre, a shopping mall, and a market selling fish and seal meat.

Oh, and Greenland has "free" medical and dental care, paid through taxes. Civilised ...
