Fjord View From 3600 ft

Yesterday, we showed you the amazing tunnel system on our road trip. Today, we found something more odd than impressive. When we saw the huge white round blobs lying in fields along A16, we didn't have a clue. But a quick Google search gave us the answer. These are tractor eggs, plastic covered bales of sileage. Or are they? The locals have another answer. They call them troll eggs and say they hatch in September/October! Others say they are huge marshmallows that are offerings for the local trolls, to keep them full so they won't hunt for humans. So now you know!

The highlight of our day was the Loen Skylift. It carried us 3,316 feet up Mount Hoven. We had great views of 2 fjords, but the best views were higher. So, of course, we hiked higher! It was COLD, but exhilarating!

We're in front of a roaring fire now, after enjoying 2 new fish options for dinner, Monk Fish and Hake. Tomorrow ... Briksdalbreen Glacier. ❄️Read more
