• Lets be a'Loen together

    29 april 2024, Noorwegen ⋅ ☁️ 7 °C

    Arrived in Olden this morning, our excursion today was in Loen, only a few minutes drive along the coastline.
    We'd booked a cable car ride called Loen Skylift which takes you up to the top of the mountain. At the top we spent ages exploring the snow and enjoying the views, even going in an Igloo!
    Stopped off for a hot chocolate in the nice warm cafe and again marvelled at the incredible scenery.
    The ride down was certainly stomach lurching, it went to the bottom of the mountain in 5 minutes, felt like we were on a roller coaster!
    At the bottom we went for a walk into Loen village, consisting mainly of me commenting on how cute the houses looked, and we spotted a traditional Norwegian church too.
    After a lunch stop on the boat we went for another walk in the other direction, then time for a well deserved nap before dinner.
    We watched the sail away from the deck and got some more of those lovely views in!
    This evening after dinner we watched the theatre show then did a movie quiz,but we were a bit rubbish.
