Day 12

This morning with the sound of rain on the tent, looking out wasn't any better with the Atlantic fog covering the Norwegian coastline. We had to move on if we were to get into Trondheim on Monday when the forecast showed sunny day. We took highway 17 along the coastline which is known as the tourist route, I can confirm from what we could see that it was worth the trip.

After the first ferry this morning I was middle in the queue and felt that the speed on the narrow coastal roads were to quick for the landy so we stopped into a museum in Grønsvik. It was basically a gunner battery that saw its fair share of action.  What was funny for us was that we stopped for an hour and when we eventually arrived at the next ferry terminal all the cars in the long queue were sitting there. Also while on the second ferry of the day we crossed over the artic circle again. We spent 9 days over the artic circle and plan to return.

Taking the advice of the girl at museum we diverted from the coastline and headed over to the main highway to proceed to Trondheim. Had the weather been better had we stayed at the coastline, we were disappointed with our luck with the weather and said that we must return.

Tonight are we south of Medjå, approximately 160 km north of Trondheim. Tomorrow some sightseeing in Norway's third largest city then onwards to the Atlantic Highway.
