Góða Ólavsøku 🇫🇴 to those who celebrate!

Today is Ólavsøka (Saint Olaf's wake), the day of the patron saint of the Faroe Islands, king Olaf II of Norway. It's a big celebration up there.

I don't have any ties to the islands, but I know a few from the linguistics community in Copenhagen, and I have studied the language a bit and visited a couple of times.
