Tórshavn is one of the smallest capital cities in the world, and it is easily one of the most photogenic harbors we have walked.

Turf roofs on one side, working fishing boats on the other, the whole thing sitting still in flat gray water. Ten minutes on foot gets you from the marina to the old town.

Full Faroe Islands travel guide coming to MuchToBeDone.com in the next few weeks.

Roughly fifty people live in Funningur. Depending on which story you believe, the Vikings got here first.

Faroese legend puts the first Norse settlement right in this spot, around 825 AD. The black turf-roofed church down by the water went up in 1847 and still holds services. Beyond that it is a handful of houses, a pier, and a mountain doing all the talking.

This is the version of the Faroes nobody puts on a postcard, and it might be our favorite one.

Meet the Giant and the Witch.

Faroese legend says Iceland sent the pair to drag these islands back home. They worked all night, the sun came up before they finished, and both turned to stone right there off the north coast. They have not moved since.

The sheep in the foreground were entirely unimpressed.

The Royal Mile hands you something new every twenty feet during the Fringe. Today it was a guy with a guitar working through A Day In The Life, and half the street just stopped walking to listen.

That is the part of Edinburgh in August nobody prints in the program. The shows are ticketed and scheduled. The street is not.

That is not a harbor. It is a crack in the island.

Gjógv sits at the north end of Eysturoy, and the entire village is built around a natural sea gorge that runs a couple hundred meters inland. For generations boats were hauled up those wooden rails and stone steps by hand, because there was no other way in or out by water.

We stood at the top of the steps a long time. The photo does not carry the scale.

Every great distillery tour comes down to the guide, and ours told the Maker's Mark family story with the perfect mix of history and humor. Six generations of the Samuels family, a recipe that hasn't changed since the 1950s, and a guy who wasn't afraid to tell us what he really thought about the product.

Every Maker's Mark bottle you buy at the distillery, you can dip yourself. Apron, gloves, goggles, and then straight into the wax. 23 bottles a minute if you're a pro. We were... not that fast.

Maker's Mark Distillery in Loretto, Kentucky was our first stop on this year's bourbon trail run, and it exceeded expectations in ways we didn't see coming. The Chihuly glass installation inside the rickhouse alone is worth the drive.

We've got the full tour breakdown, the wax-dipping process, what to order at Star Hill Provisions, and how it stacks up against Buffalo Trace on the blog now: https://www.muchtobedone.com/makers-mark-distillery-tour
