We were supposed to go to Koltur yesterday, but there was a 2-4 hour wait for the ferry. We tried twice, to no avail. Apparently, one of the two farms was really broken down. A Danish benefactor donated enough money to restore it and turn it into a special meeting place/historical site for folks to visit. The caretaker had expected a few hundred visitors, but instead had over 2,000. He promises to set up another event for folks to come visit soon. It is not super easy to get there because there is no steady ferry to that island. Otherwise, the only access is by helicopter (tirla.) So we spent our Jóansøka in Velbastað with Elsa, Beinta, and Duruta. They had an enormous bon fire in the grass above the town.
