adventures in *

I picked up a Toyota Prius at the airport, I was hoping for a new Golf but it was all they had available. I had an exhausting drive to Gjerde, 445km away but it took me nearly 9 hours. The speed limit in Norway is generally 90kph on the E roads (major highways) and 60 on the minor ones. Photo radar boxes are set up along the road to catch speeders, they do a good job keeping everyone near the speed limit. I was worried about snow on the road along route 55 through the Jotunheimen mountains, at an elevation of 1430 meters, it’s the highest road in Northern Europe.

I’m too tired to sort through photos today, I’m going to try to get more than 2 hours of sleep like the previous nights. I’ll need it for the kayaking and glacier hiking at Styggevatnet tomorrow.
