Reidun closed the door to the lodgings and looked around at all of the activity. People were drinking and laughing and carrying on in the streets and there was a general feeling of good spirits. She laughed at some of the men that were showing off for the women around them. For the most part she moved through the crowds fluidly. She walked around for a while getting a general layout and feel for the landscape and security of the city. Mostly she just liked to people watch a little.

Accepting a mug of ale from one of the women near the hall Reidun, watched as the men danced a norwegian jig and she joined in with some of the women when it was their turn. Her red tresses were wavy from having been up for so long and now as they were free her hair spun and flew about her like a red cape as she danced. Thanks to the ale Reidun was more relaxed than she had been since she stepped aboard the boats two weeks ago. Her contagious laughter caught the ear of many around her and begat smiles from the nearby locals.


Aksel looked up at the woman with the long dark hair and smiled at her enthusiasm. She looked like a warrior so he nodded. [color=gray]“I don’t see any reason for you not to go. We have fifteen boats total on this trip. Some are a little larger than the others but they all float well enough.”[/color] He waved at her to join him. [color=gray]“Please Isgred, sit and tell me what you hope to find on our trip to England.” [/color]
