Isaac Sharp and Asbjorn Kloster in the Faroe Islands (April June 1862)
Journal of Isaac Sharp - June 2, 1862
Skuvoy
Left Qualboe(Hvalba)between six and seven, and, after a favourable passage of about three hours, landed on the island of Skuve(Skuvoy). A considerable number of men are absent, having gone in quest of birds and eggs; and are not expected to return before tomorrow. A little company of twenty assembled at the house of one of the peasants. We left this island in a boat about three, and went on foot across the island of Ssndoe(Sandoy)to Skaapen(Skopun), and took a boat from thence to Hestoe(Hestur), arriving there about eight in the evening; and on this island rested for the night.
