Fiords and ferries

Our first fiord was first seen from way up as we went over the mountain pass - snow and glacier from 1500m. Camera died of course from all the frantic clicking at hay and tractors and barns on the way up. Lucky for the iPad and phone backups as spare battery flat as well !!!.








This fiord ends here way in from the coast but is still salty and deep care of the glaciers. Mother sides are steep and rocky and we passed several farms only abandoned in the 50's - where they had to tether the babies as well as the cows to stop them falling of the edge.

We were allowed to wander the little town of Geiranger for lunch until it was time for bus and us to get on the ferry and pass the cruise ships on our way to Loen and another fiord both ending in the Atlantic Ocean .








With love
