Varanger NSR Part 1

Today we woke up to sunny and gorgeous weather! We were both like what is this sun?!? It feels like we haven’t seen it in forever! So that was really nice.

After breakfast we headed off to drive the Varanger National Scenic Route! We could see where we would be driving from camp last night and honestly I wasn’t expecting it to be amazing, but the drive there was another gorgeous drive just like yesterday! So nice!

Then we got to the scenic route (the photo with the sign with a knot thing?) and it was still nice! Different from yesterday, but still beautiful! We had a stop at a rest area (the photos before the church - we saw a seal pop its head up a min before dissapearing), then on to Nesseby church (they were filming inside so we couldn’t go in) where we saw so many fun birds! The close up photo of the sand/rocks if you zoom in you can see some common ringed plover! They were all over the beach, but hard to see unless they were moving as they blended in with the rocks. It was a really gorgeous area and a great start to the day!Read more
