• Varanger NSR Part 4

    September 22 in Norway ☁️ 10 °C

    We finally arrived at the end of the road - Hamningberg, and abandoned fishing village! The first two photos are the views from where we are parked (of note there are 6 other campers and they are all parked to not take advantage of the views! I was like do other people not care about this?!? Because I am always like where is the best view from my seat inside the car and that is where we will set up! I want to see the views!!)

    Once we got settled we walked up to the top of the hill where the Hamningberg Battery was and saw the old remains of the bunkers and guns that were up there and also could see all the views! There were also rocks everywhere which were really cool!

    Once we came down from that we walked through town to the bird blind on the water which was pretty fun! Yellow windows this time! And another bunker! We sat and watched the water for a bit as it was getting rougher waves which I love! We saw a small lemming on the rocks by where we were sitting! All the fun!

    Once we started to get cold we headed back to the van. It was odd as around 4:45 it started to look like sunset with some color in the sky, but sunset was not until 6! It’s so interesting that the light is so different even if sunset is not that early! The sun sets before 6 in winter in Berlin, but it is not like this. I told Raymond I will probably comment on this every day as it is so odd for me!

    Overall today was an amazing day! I can’t wait to drive through the cool rocks again tomorrow and see what else we see along the way!
