Today we headed into the true fjord area - Vestlandet. 

But before that we followed more coastline with ever-changing geography. The start of the day was slow, as Ms GPS sent us down a road that became ever narrower, and when it turned into an uphill gravel track we decided to turn around. Lovely scenery though. And everywhere were wildflowers.

There are a number of well promoted light houses on this coast, and we detoured to see the Lindesnes Fyr. Lovely drive out there but we baulked at paying A$12 each to see it. Really- it's a lighthouse, and Bob said he had seen one before! The entry included the museum, but the lighthouse itself is part of the package. So I have a picture of half of it only.
 
 
 
We travelled along the shore of a number of fjords, one much bluer than the others for some reason. They all look very cold.

After stopping at a number of towns it was late afternoon when we were nearing Stavanger. Here the countryside for a while became flat farming land. Huge farms with huge barns. But rocks are everywhere and that seems to be what this area is made of. 

There was still time for a walk to Stavanger centre. We still can't believe the restaurant prices. 
Tomorrow we hope to climb to a very large rock. Preikestolen or Pulpit Rock. Hope we aren't over estimating our abilities for uphill hiking.
