Hello: I am traveling to Lofoten the week of July 4th. Can you suggest day and evening events or activities that might be occurring at that time? I am considering signing up for the Viking Feast. Anything else I should do? Monta Lee Dakin Littleton, COLORADO In a message dated 2/17/2017 6:33:55 P.M.
