A Visit to the Lofoten lslandsa a a t!aaa t a a a aaaaaa a a aaaa aa a a aaaataat llaaaaara a aaaaaaaaaa a a a a a aa aa a

We arrived in the Lofoten

lslands in Norway on a

bright July evening. Atthis time of year; the sun

never goes down so itnever gets dark because

the islands are so farnorth. We sat for hours.

watching the sunlightshinino on the mountains

across the water.

We spent the next fewdays exploring the islands

in brilliant sunshine. We

travelled by car, goingfrom one island to another by bridge or tunnel. These bridges and tunnels have replaced

the ferries between the largest islands.

One day we decided we would take a boat trip. They leave at 12 noon every day. You have

to book the day before or by 10.30 at the latest on the day of the trip. l'd booked the day

before, not realising that the weather here can change quickly. I was warned that they

needed a minimum of five passengers for the trip. When we got up that day, it was raining

hard but we set off, hoping other people had also booked. We were lucky. When we got

in the boat, the sun came out again and there were enough of us, all eager to see the

islands from the sea. We went past islands with ruined villages where nobody wants to live

any more. We also had the chance to catch our own fish which we could eat later on.

On our last day we visited the Museum of Lofoten Life. By the year 900 the islands were

famous for cod fishing. People sailed there in small open boats from other areas so

they could make the most of the fishing opportunities. All these visiting fishermen needed

somewhere to stay and over the years many fishermen's cabins were built by the water's

edge. ln the museum, some of these are on display as well as fishing equipment,

boathouses and traditional boats. ln summer (June 20-Aug 20), it's open daily from1 1am-5.30pm and during the rest of the year it's open f rom Monday to Friday 1 'lam-3pm.

People on the islands have always made a living from fishing and farming. Fishing is still

an essential part of the economy but, although agriculture is still important in some areas,

the number of farms has decreased in the past 30 years.

l'd highly recommend a trip to the Lofoten lslands. The quickest way to get there is to flyfrom the Norwegian capital, Oslo, to Bodo which is on the coast opposite the Lofoten

islands and then take a flight to Leknes on one of the northern islands. lt is also possible

to catch a ferry from Bodo to Svolver which is much cheaper.

A musical evening

Last night I went to see'Bennie', the musicalwhich has just opened in theAlbertTheatre inLondon.

There is of course already both a film and abook called'Bennie', about a child whobecomes a famous singer.I enjoyed the bookso I was excited when I heard about the film.I was disappointed, however, when I finallysaw it because unfortunately they managed tomake all the amusing parts of the book seemserious.It was also long and slow.I came tothe musical without much hope but it wasmore entertaining than the film.They've had tochange parts of the story but I really thought itwas as good as the book.

Apart from one actor whose voice isn't as

strong as the others,I thought the acting wasbrilliant.Although the orchestra isn't verylarge,the music was perfect.I especially likedthe piano and drums. Most of the parts inmusicals I've seen recently have been foryoung actors. In several, as in'Bennie', themain part is for a child.I was surprised,therefore, when I realised at ofle point thatthree-quarters of the people on stage were atleast 40 of over and some of them are verywell known.This is a great advantage to theproduction.

I noticed that quite a few people didn't buythe programme.The main complaint was thatit was too expensive at I4.Vhile it costs morethan most programmes, it was worth it.I didn'thave time to read it all in the interval as it'shuge and full of details but it's a lovelysouvenir to take home.
