Senja

What a lovely place to stay with Lisbeth in Bo. Particularly liked the magical woods. We didn't see anything more exciting than a hare but the light through the dwarf birch forest was lovely. Dinner and breakfast were of a different class than which I have become accustomed, with associated price tag. Blue skies all day concealed a tough northerly but the coastline was spectacular. Beautiful beaches with azure seas below a mountain escarpment straight from a Tolkien novel. Historical Sami sites incongruously alongside the Andoya space centre(!). Sea eagles. Then the ferry took us to Senja which felt like it should be the mainland but actually is one of norways biggest, least populated and wildest islands. Ice creams on arrival: Can you believe it!!Instantly we could feel the difference with deep fjords and steep fjord sides... not all with tunnels through them..😳
Plus...another mention on radio 6 this morning, AND I passed 7000km- now 7011km😊Read more
