Noble Friends, Especially Vikings:

Today BBC Travel has an illustrated feature on the Viking settlement at 
L'Anse Aux Meadows in Newfoundland. This was the first known European 
settlement in North American, said to have been founded by Leif Erikson 
around 1000 AD. The BBC presentation has several remarkable photos, 
including a view inside one of the longhouses with costumed re-enactors:
