Home in Alesund
Made it to the apartment in Alesund after about 6hrs 30min driving. Traffic was a bit heavy coming into town right around 5pm so it took a little longer. Finding the apartment was a challenge. Google sent us up some streets that really were dicey and some looked like 1-way roads (going the other way) but we made it. The streets are really narrow and unbelievably steep, but nothing our Yaris couldn’t handle. I laid the peddle to the metal and whoosh, light speed! All 83 of those ponies kicked in and there was no stopping us. God save us if this thing stalls, it’s a long way to the bottom!
The apartment is at the top of a ridge that overlooks the harbor. Awesome views, that is when it’s not raining. It was pouring when we got here making unloading the car a lot of fun but Collette managed. Once she got the clothes put away, the groceries stored and drinks made, it was time to relax. It rains here much like in the Caribbean, heavy downpours for 15-20 minutes, then nothing, then it repeats. Tomorrow we’re driving to Greirangerfjord, one of Norway’s most famous and visited fjords. As for today, time to kick back and relax.
Looks like a great apartment….love the pink bedroom..lol. I love the way you let Collette take over putting everything away and unloading the car….what a guy….ha. It looks like a fun village/town.
Nothings too good for my girl! Pink’s not my first choice but we didn’t have time to do any painting.
