One final post before we jump on the 1st of four plane rides home. Keeping this blog has been a great connection to home and reading your comments has been a highlight of our days.  Thank you for reading and commenting.   It's been fantastic to have you all along for the ride and we can't wait to see you in person. 

Sitting around in hotels and airports gives us far too much time to write however so here's another song about looking forward to coming home.

It's written to the classic tune of    "Tie a yellow ribbon"


We're coming home
We're feeling fine
Been cycling around Norway
All this time
We pedalled through the mountains
All the way to shining sea
But there's one thing that you should know
When you meet up with me
Our 1 priority

Chorus
It's down to Fed for coffee
And a muffin too
It's been three long months
Without a decent brew
We'll sit there in the back room
Like it used to be
Catch up on the chat
Well how about that
Another coffee please
We're going down to Federal
It's the place we like to be


Well Toffa's on the ice cream truck
He'll try and make it there with any luck
Shaz is in from Bell Block
Maddie's back from overseas
Dot and Den are coming in
The Earps are absentees
We wrote and told them please


Chorus

Well get right down to Federal
We'll be there at two
It's been three long months
Without a decent brew
We really need a coffee and a good, long chat
Jump in the car, it's not that far
We'll be out the back
It's coffee time at Federal
Won't you come and join the craic.



A large flat white sounds good to me
And make it extra hot now if you please
Here's Tony and Irena
And my Dad seems to have thrived
San and Dave gave us a wave
We passed them on the drive
The crew have all arrived


Chorus

It's coffee time at Federal
Won't you join us too
For a lot of laughs and banter
With a special crew
We don't half talk some rubbish
But we laugh lots too
For hours we talk
Before our beach walk
Swim in the ocean too
Theennn.....it's back off up to Federal
Won't you come and join us too

THANKS EVERYBODY!!!

  Last night I was curious to see just how many others had chosen the 10.30pm ferry and was surprised when we saw the queues as we arrived at the ferry terminal.  I was equally surprised when the ferry docked about 10.10pm and watched all the cars drive off.  I thought they'd finished, then they start driving up from the basement of the ship.  We also had so many going over to Lofoten that many vehicles had to go into the basement. We just hoped they didn't have the same idea as us to go climb Reinebringen at 3am. It had gone quite cold with the fog that rolled in as we waited, so Pete and I had layered up.  We also took a bag each upstairs with extra layers, and we're very glad we did.  Even though the ferry was chocka, it was quite cool and we needed those extra layers.  We were lucky we were on first and nabbed a booth area where we could both lay down, which we did for all but the last half hour of the journey. I managed 3 hours of good quality sl...

30th July 2023 (cloudy cool morning, sunny warm arvo) 28km

Overcast again this morning. Woke 5.45am then snuggled down again til 7.30am. Å is on the cards for this morning, then we'll  reassess the weather etc at lunchtime. Breakfast on our deck overlooking the camp. It was rather fresh this morning with an expected high today of 16C. There is a couple staying here at present who have come in their late model coach. That's right...would have to be a 12 metre converted coach. Still, even with all that money, it doesn't stop idiots in a car and caravan from trying to get past you, without sufficient room. Resulting in the caravan hitting the bus's wing mirror and people screaming for the car driver who was oblivious, to stop. Anyway they got it sorted and I doubt the coach owner will be bothered as insurance will cover it. Today we were off further south (can't go too far as the road runs out) to see a couple of small fishing villages and do a hike.  Our thighs and calves have been sore since our climb the other day...
