Motorhome News from Europe 32. Norway 17th August 05 Around about the middle: Stjordal, Trondheim, Roros, Oppdal, Doverfjell, Dombas, Rondane Park, Vagamo and Lom. The school holidays have come to an end here and fields of buttercups have been sacrificed to the hay barns for the long winter ahead. The sun now sets at night and the martins and swallows are heading south as we prepare to travel with them for our migration across the North Sea, from Norway's beautiful Bergen, to Shetland, way to the north of Scotland, on the 23rd August. But there is still much to see and do before we leave these shores. Our campsite host at Stjordal, the local farmer and entrepreneur, had many strings to his bow; a carbon copy of our good friend Roy, back home at Little Lodge ... read more

Lieve mensen, De eerste wandeling door het hooggebergte zit er alweer op! Zaterdag ochtend vertrokken naar Jotunheimen. Na een flinke klim door de eerste sneeuw aangekomen op de plaats van overnachten. Aan een mooi meertje op een dikke kilometer boven de zeespiegel met uitzicht op een gletsjer. Het was flink koud maar genoten van de zonsondergang in het gezelschap van een kampvuurtje. Optijd de warme slaapzak opgezocht en in de ochtend verder getrokken. ... read more

Since this is our last stop on our world trip and our next destination is home, we know some of you may still be waiting for those letters and postcards. You know... like those crazy t-shirts that say "My Mom and Dad went to -------- and all I got was this stupid t-shirt!" The real truth is we decided the best way to describe Norway was in postcards because around every corner there seems to be another picture perfect postcard scene. Norway has been a special place for us because "A's" grandfather and famliy came from Norway. They left to settle in Iowa in the early 1900's. "A" had a great time searching for his roots. Norway's amazing rugged beauty is impossible to capture in words only. So sit back... let your fingers do the clicking.... ... read more

Europe » Norway » Northern Norway » Lofoten Islands August 9th 2005

Motorhome News from Europe 31. Norway 10th August 2005 The beautiful Lofoten Islands - and back to the mainland Above the Arctic Circle and heading south. Fiskebol, Svolvaer, Lofotr, Å, Flakstad, Bodo, Svartisen Glacier, Lovund, Trondheim The Viking Gods were against us as we arrived by ferry on the island of Lofoten. Our dreams of dazzling fjords and sunlit dramatic scenery vanished in a haze of damp mist and drizzle as soon as we landed at the dock in Fiskebol. But we have never let a small thing like rain spoil our day. The outline of grey mountains rising at 60 degrees from windswept fjords and dark clouds masking a determined sun were still dramatic and exciting. That day was also a day of magnificent rainbows; great arches of brilliant colour casting pots of gold on ... read more

Motorhome News from Europe 30. Sweden August 2005 Abisko in Sweden and west to Norway’s beautiful Lofoten Islands There is a chair lift in Sweden’s largest National Park at Abisko. Rising to about 3,000ft, the Linbana lift ferries skiers to the top in winter and walkers and tourists in the summer. We took the easy way up and hiked the five-hour trail across wild hill-bog rich with flowers, down to the dense birch forest and scrubby willow deep in the valley below. We went there for the walking and to see the birds of course; and we were not disappointed. Even as we ascended in the cable car a hawk owl flew across our path and perched on a tree below, and a pair of willow grouse with their young looked up as we passed. A ... read more
