Here we are in the Lofoten, with dramatic mountains rising straight out the sea with little fishing villages dotted between them. We arrived last night on the Car ferry at the Southern tip of the island chain in a small place called Moskenes. See ferry port photo below.
Tim's knee is still swollen and we are giving it a rest until it is happy to go again. So today we went on a history tour of the fishing heritage to Å, a fishing village museum. Any questions we may have had about stockfish drying and the export of Norwegian Atlantic Cod to Africa, Italy and Portugal are now answered!
Cod heads drying, see below.
Now we are on our way back to the campsite so start our Yatze battle.
Tomorrow we are back on the bikes for an easy roll. Sunshine forecast - whoppee! Enjoy your time off Mary and Helen.
