Thursday September 15th Fossoy on HW 604
The end of a good day! |
It has been quite a day with
the morning spent dealing with business matters back in New Zealand, all good.
We left following G&C down the rather narrow road and back on the highway
into Sogndalsfjora with the sun shining and a mist over the fjord. We needed to
get a better wifi signal so parked in a supermarket carpark on the outskirts
and spent several hours online.
But car parking in the centre
of town, right beside the fjord is at a premium and we spent quite a long time
driving around until we found a park, and needing to take up two spaces we had
to put money in two meters! Found a place to have lunch and bought a few other
essentials including a bottle of bubbles.
It was almost 2pm when we left
town and we headed back a little and took HW 604 up to the glaciers. Gerhart
and Conny had gone up earlier and we had arranged to catch up again in the
evening. It was quite a drive and at the end decided the road wasn’t really
suitable for Ruakiwi so turned around and drove back down the road until we
found a rather nice camp spot beside the glacial river. It wasn’t long before
“the germans” arrived, pulled the chairs out and had another very good evening
starting off with a bottle of French Champagne! Sorry, but very few photos
today.

As close as we got! |
