Pack a backpack with your lunch, put on your hiking shoes and come along. Make sure to follow the red signs as you go.
I made our lunch packets as soon as we finished breakfast. Bread with brown and white cheese, eggs, coffee, water, and a chocolate.We drove up a privat road as far as we could, we left the car, opened the gate.......at the world was ours!
At first an easy path.....
.....with orchids growing.
Soon we met challenges though. A steep climb. A muddy path!
But with a knowledge (for some of us) and a promise (for others) of spectacular nature on the top, we kept on.
My favorite comment of the day came from Lanny: "You know" he said, "before coming here I looked at images from Norway. They all showed such amazing beauty I was sure they were tiny parts of a huge picture where most had to be hide, only the real beauty shown. Now I am here, and I see that all of Norway really is this amazing beauty!"
What could we say....other than smile in agreement.....
So do tell me, what do you know about Norway from your part of the world?

Our hike is over. It is time to go back to the cabin and our cabin view.
