Final Stop on Washington Island

Our last stop on Washington Island was Stavkirke, a replica of early Christian churches built in Scandinavia. It was absolutely beautiful – hand crafted entirely by local volunteers of local wood. This was hanging behind the altar – also made by volunteers. The words at the bottom are Norwegian for He Is Risen.

We ferried back to the mainland, and a stop for ice cream – and one more chance to admire the absolutely gorgeous flowers we saw all over the place there on this trip. Just lovely.
