Whitsun

We spend most of our Whit break in Saltum Strand in northern Denmark at a 2CV meet. We drove down to Göteborg on the Friday and crossed to Fredrikshavn in North Jutland on the midnight ferry.

We had two days in glorious summer weather at Guldager Camping (recommended if you are planning to visit the area) before taking the Sunday night ferry from Hirtshals to Larvik and driving back through the night to Gol.

Back again. Fantastic!

We arrived home a week ago yesterday from our long summer cycle tour. The tour had been our first one since the summer of 2009 and took us from Gol all the way up to Bodø and then to the Lofoten Islands. A trip of new experiences and remembering old ones.

After a slightly fraught train journey back (engineering works meant we had to take two buses and almost missed our connection in Oslo) we arrived on Saturday evening to a lawn covered in lush green grass, and tomato and pumpkin plants growing well albeit bereft of fruit. Whilst I went inside to turn on the water and the water heater, Damae grabbed the “gressklipper” and started giving the lawn a haircut.

Once again it was good to be back home.
