After staying with my son Magnus and his fiancé Martine in York for one day I had to get to Newcastle to catch the ferry to the Faroe Islands. A heavy snowfall overnight made it impossible to drive, and totally impossible to get a taxi. Martine managed though to get me to the train station in time. The train was delayed because of the snow, so I was nervous about getting to Newcastle in time. Arriving in Newcastle I got a taxi and got transported to the Port of Tyne. I even got some time to do some little shopping before entering the ferry.
