Denmark to Norway and lots of fiords.

Wednesday, May 21, 2014
Farsund, Vest-Agder, Norway
Left Grenen and drove to Hirtshals, to catch the ferry. Stocked up on more food - Norway more expensive than Denmark, we are told. Free WiFi in the library car park outside shop.

Smooth crossing, 3 hours, on huge RoRo ferry, our 5th ferry ride and into our 13th country, (some twice .)

Denmark is horizontal (flat with a few rolling hills, green and restful). Norway is vertical (except the fiords) and spectacular. We drove from the ferry along the south west coast, in and out of several fjords, little fishing villages and around little perched lakes. So beautiful, even in drizzling rain, with towering rocky cliffs bordering the roads.

We camped at the Bobil Camp at Farsund, beautiful fishing village on a fiord leading to the coast. If "Bobil" means "Motorhome" then we now drive a Bobil, not a Boomer! Or maybe a Bobil Boomer!

Chatted to an elderly Norwegian couple who came to spy out the campers, whose grandson is studying in Sydney.
