Hey I am in Norway. look

ø æ å

We are camping and cycling but today is a day off cyling so we are just hanging out. We were supposed to be going on a trip to a big rock which was 4 hours walk but we thought we were getting a bit too keen with all this physical activity so we stayed in bed reading. It was also raining all night and a bit cloudy. It has been super hot the whole time which allowed us to enjoy white sandy beaches on the North sea. We even went swimming at one point but we had to leave because Tom lost all feeling in his legs. It was the sort of temperature you imagine the North sea to be.

The ferry over was great and we took advantage of the breakfast buffet. Then a train to our first place to stay near Egersund. Campsites in Norway have kitchens and our first campsite had a really really nice kitchen. ooh and it had a massive communal tipi for everyone to use but becuase Norway is generally really empty we were the only ones using it. We had a nice dinner in the tipi.

So now we are in Stavenger and we went the the Norwegian Petroleum museum and the Canning factory which is all about the sardine canning trade in norway. The petroleum museum is all about oil rigs and the oil trade in Norway. They were both very interesting and very interactive. I went down an escape shute and pretended to escape from an oil rig and I packed rubber sardines into tins.

Now we are going to go back to the campsite and cook jambalaya. You just wait till you see what we have been cooking. Donæt worry i have taken pictures of every meal. This mornign we had pancakes and maple syrup.

Oh and sorry no one will be getting postcards as they are 1 pound each and thatæs just too much to pay for a postcard.
