If this was one of those "idiot drivers" videos that I like to watch on YouTube, the fork lift driver would push a bit more and the top pallet would fall into the water! But this is real life and the driver called for assistance to get it pushed properly on to the forks.

The quay is made of wood and possibly fairly fragile so the mooring hawser is attached to a chain which goes through an hole in the quay to the shore where it is firmly anchored.

It is called Jenny Lind - a name we know well. She is remembered in Sutton.
2018-09-06 11:40:09 Fr:5/189548 Sq:06114409
Note "Passport control" in Russian - we are just 18km from Russia.
And about 30° E: the same longitude as Istanbul but it does not seem so far. At the equator 1° of longitude is 111 km but at 70° N like Kirkenes 1° of longitude is only 38 km.

Oslo
2018-09-06 15:19:18 Fr:5/189550 Sq:06151918
Seen from inside the terminal building of Gardermoen Airport. Improbably tall control tower and curious sculpture of man throwing paper dart.
