Life saving equipment...


Last night anna and I went to the rescue team (bjørgunarsveit) meeting. this time we had to (re)learn about the use of floating suits, how to put them on and use the. after jumping from a ferrie we had a swim in the harbour and did some exercises. the suit wasn't completely water proof as i got a bit wet on my arms.
after 30 min in the arctic water your fingers start to feel numb, so i guess lying in the big ocean for many hours in bad weather is no joke...
a good course and good fun!

Glad you are 'up and running' again - nice to see Reykjavik photos, too. We remember being small children afraid of the 'big' geese in the park...
