  • Bleikmorenen Nature Reserve

    Bleikmorenen Nature Reserve

    Today we went on a short hike in the Bleik nature reserve. The Bleik moraine is Norway‘s oldest ice-front moraine on land, as the sign at the entrance informs us. The day was just a tiny touch on the chilly side with 11° C and some winds at the shore, but the nature is phenomenally…

  • The Otter Beach

    The Otter Beach

    In our morning stroll at the beach we saw this little fellow… Actually, I saw him well before Ronja did as she was busy sniffing around in the sand.

  • Midnattsol Camping Bleik

    Midnattsol Camping Bleik

    After the short break and a quick walk into the greenery, we drove on towards Bleik. We arrived at the camp site at about 13.15 and picked our spot for the night. Not much too late. When we came back from our afternoon walk, the camp ground was full. The campground is located at the…

    We’re on our way up north towards Bleik taking a short break about half (?) way along the road.

  • Svolvær

    Svolvær

    We had a nice and dry morning walk, but as we were driving to Svolvær it was raining the whole time. I bought some groceries on the way in and waited for the rain to clear. We had a nice stroll around the small town. The air is fresh, but as soon as the sun…

  • Lofoten Beach Camp

    Lofoten Beach Camp

    The weather this afternoon is ghastly. Winds at around 7 m/s and heavy rain doesn‘t make you want to go anywhere. I‘ll see how Ronja feels about the rain in a bit. We arrived at Lofoten Beach Camp in the morning and found an empty spot for the camper. It‘s the second time we‘re arriving…

  • Djupforsen

    Djupforsen

    Our day was uneventful today. After our morning walk clouds brought a bit of rain and I had to talk Ronja into coming back into the camper. In the afternoon we went for a walk to Djupforsen. The sights – as everywhere – are just stunning. The walk itself was unfortunately not very spectacular, but…

  • Moskenes Day 2

    Moskenes Day 2

    The night was windy. With gusts up to 18 m/s the camper was rocking back and forth during the night. It is still quite windy this morning and even the ferry departures have been cancelled until 14.45. After our morning walk Ronja is now lying outside enjoying the chilly winds. And I’m looking at the…
