Isaac Sharp and Asbjorn Kloster in the Faroe Islands (April – June 1862)
Journal of Isaac Sharp - May 26, 1862
Skalavik and Husevik
Between eight and nine this morning, we left our quarters for Skallevig (Skalavik) on the island of Sandoe (Sandoy) and arrived about eleven. At half-past twelve, a small meeting was held at the house of a peasant, and another at Husevig (Husevik) between three and four.
Dalur
From this place we went on foot to Dahl (Dalur), with a female as guide, the men being absent at the fishing. On calling at the house of one of the peasants we were invited in, where sat the proprietor, an old man, busily employed in knitting a large vest with four heavy needles and two balls of spun wool of different colours. The valley of Dahl (Dalur), with its sandy bay, looked bright and beautiful in the evening sun-light.
