Day:194, Words:194: Øksfjordians on holiday!

There are two types of suprises in life and both were experienced by the Øksfjordians today. It was an early start with a full day tour commencing at the beach before 9am. Strangely enough though, the price that was paid to partake in the Mangavat waterfall tour did not include the waterfall itself. The equivalent, I guess, might be the Grand Canyon tour that takes place somewhere in Northern Canada, with an extra wad of cash required for the bus to take you there.

The other suprising element was the lack of turtle action, considering that, along with the waterfall, turtle watching, was one of the selling points for the tour! Nevertherless, the freshly prepare lunch and the swim in the middle of the Mediterranean was a highlight. Pleasant suprises came in the evening. The 7 piece dance troupe was so talented, they seemed more suited to a concert hall in Instanbul or London, than a cosy 3 star resort. The belly dancer was equally impressive with her rythmic pulsations captivating spectators both young and old. If that wasn't enough, the diligent staff performed a breathing and juggling exhibition. What a wonderfully varied place!
