Tromsø

On the sign at the botanical garden there was a note on how to get to the geology walk so of course we had to go spy on that! I enjoyed that as it showed the geology of Norway and then there were lots of rock samples to look at. Such fun!

After that we went downtown to see what we could see. It was sunny when we parked and Raymond almost left his rain pants in the car, but it was good he didn’t as by the time we started walking the wind had picked up and was blowing little ice pieces in our face! It was not fun…I was just about to say I’m done, let’s just get out of here when it stopped so we kept wandering. There was a little stand selling hot dogs that had vegan ones so we got some topped with fried onions, pickled onions, and beets! So tasty!

Then off to spy on the Arctic Cathedral where it started blowing ice in our face again, which hurts! so I took a pic and we headed on to camp!

Tomorrow we go to the other side of the big mountains so I think Raymond will be able to relax a bit and not worry so much once we get over there as it is less likely we will get trapped. I do have a couple fun stops planned so we shall see what we see!Read more
