Norway - day five We woke to fog blanketing the lake and valley this morning. It was quite pretty, although somewhat annoying. We left in search of glaciers not sure if we'd even be able to see them. In our very first tunnel for the day, half way through dad met a truck (with trailer) piled high with logs. After a short panic from everyone dad started reversing out of the tunnel. No easy feet as these tunnels aren't straight and there is the constant worry of t...

Norway - day four It is cold!!! 7pm, 12 degrees and dropping. The accompanying photo is of the view from our 4m x 3m cabin (small for 4 adults but it will be warm).

About 20mins in the sky turned a dark ominous grey colour broken only by the flashes of lightning followed by a loud rumble. We decided to press on. It wasn't long before it was bucketing down rain. I had taken my c...

Norway - Day one The scenery in Norway is spectacular. We have driven some tiny steep roads today, but wow what a view. The scenery changed from forests and cliff faces to rocky mountainous ranges with tufts of grass and white, fluffy looking wild flowers. The landscape was dotted with sheep, all wondering free and munching on the grass. We kept driving up and up and up and reached 930m above sea level. Then we started driving down. Nelly looked like we were dr...
