On The Road.


(My Cousin, Eli) 

While we were on the road coming back from Trondheim we stopped to have lunch where there were picnic benches and a beautiful view.


Cottage in the distance.


To use up our energy before getting back in the car for the rest of the day, my cousins and I walked all the way to the water and back. This was more of a challenge than we had expected. We thought we could just walk across the rocks but there was high grass we had to walk through and the grass was filled with spiders and lizards and ants! Oh my!


We stopped again along the way to stretch our legs and get an ice-cream at a little souvenir shop.


View of the Atlantic.

Our last stop of the day was a place to sleep. The picture above is of the main cabin, where you check in, get information and grab a coffee before you head out again.


The view from our cabin.


It's very common to see cabins that have moss and other plants growing on the roof. It reminds me of solar panels, but the solar energy is taken in by the plants instead.

The next day we continued driving. We drove up the Trollstigen road, that goes along a mountain and has a view of many waterfalls. We were driving in a Volkswagon van, which is not the best thing to be driving on slim, curvy roads, but we managed. I would have taken pictures but the fog was too heavy. These pictures were taken when we were at the top and the sun began to shine through the fog. You can see the thick fog starting to recede.

The snow was too close to the road to not get out and throw a few snow balls.
