In Nuuk we feel it almost hot when temperature is between 16 and 20 C. It is nice because it is not at all cold.
All these photos were taken July 28 AM.
I am just a Dane who did never imagine that I should be allowed to look at all these landscapes. Please follow me.
Downloading may take some minutes as the pictures are in high resolution

We have no gardens but flowers in Nuuk and Nuussuaq MH (c)
Nuussuaq west In Greenland you cannot own earth. So we do not have gardens. Just wild flowers. Summer is short, so we enjoy them more intensively.
