Patience. That’s what you’ll need for today’s Geo Quiz. That’s because getting there will take time and effort.

Just ask resident Paul Kelly.

?If you were to get to our island…?

Its name is Old Norse for ‘fat island’ because the land was rich and fertile.

The name’s not the only thing the Viking settlers left behind. Folks here play a board game where you sandwich, squish and even crush your opponent.

Vikings first settled it.
