Recordist's notes
Tide rising on one of the scalloped bays on the west of Tromso / Romssa island. This more sheltered bay has sand and fine shingle, a small stone wall divides the beach from the public park where a few fires are lit. The name "Telegrafbukta" names the bay as the place where the telegram lines reached the island in 1894.
