Admiring Slartybartfast's award winning work

Still roaming the North, this time we have crossed over into Norway, which is not surprising because from where we were in Kurani in Sweden, there is only one road in and out. You either go to Norway or,  you back track the way you came into Sweden, No Backtrackers in this crew.

Another day, mostly on the road, with lots of landscapes to see and very few buildings or churches. In fact, there are not many towns or people up this way (apart from German and Dutch motorhome and caravaners). I have seen a few bikes though. It is good country for motorcycle touring, although can be cold and occasionally wet. I did not get a photo as it had passed too quickly, but today I saw a Motorbike, with a Sidecar and towing a small caravan. I have never seen that before.

We travelled from Kurani Sweden to Navik Norway, then to Skarberget for a ferry to the others side Bognes, and then along a few k's to our rest stop of  Ulvsvag. Where beers are very expensive, as is everything in Norway. Norwegians go to Sweden because its cheap. What a Laugh.

Lots of Fjords and wrinkly bits (thanks Slarty), a bit slow driving as most times between 60-70k.

In response to Tristan, yes it must be hard for the Muslims with Ramadan and fasting during daylight hours, I guess they invoke the bona fide traveller exception rule and visit each other a lot. It is daylight here for a few months, no wonder they are looking skinny.

In response to E. , they have all sorts of foods up here, including lots of Reindeer product, including Pate (to which I can thank Ross that I have a tin of for emergencies) . They also have smelly fish (which I avoid) and at breakfast this morning in Sweden, they had Horse salami, of which I had some, but it was a bit salty and is neigh for me.
