After our long morning walk with the Canogs it was time to head off towards Sognefjord. The very large intimidating fjord on the map. Perfect blues sky sent us on our way late afternoons. We had a loose plan to meet up with Katherine and Nial in the next few days, but didn’t know where or when. We slid gently though the channels heading north and had spotted a small inland water area in the north west of the fjord which might have a place to anchor. I think it was about 830 pm by the time we had slipped in through the narrows and into the very calm inland area called Lifjordan I think.
There was a low wire over the exit channel so we could only go so far that way. Just slightly west of the the narrows there was a likely nook. Glassy and surrounded by trees we glided into 2 metres depth with keel up we dropped anchor less than 10 metres from the bank. And reversed back a bit. We had absolutely no swing room so we put 2 stern lines ashore. Nick was so exited he dropped all the cooking utensils and was in the dingy with spoons towing the lines ashore. Great fun and a unique spot. I decided to go on a late night dingy expedition with Claire in the half light that was what is called night here. Still no Otters. Although there was a hint of an otter on arrival. Czytaj więcej
