After breakfast a journalist from Sunnmorsposten came to the B&B to interview me. He heard about me from a friend and thought it was an important project. If you speak Norwegian you can read it here (Premium), if you don’t then put it through google translate ;) It’s worth reading.
Today was a relaxing day, I only had to do 115km to Hustad so I didn’t need to worry about charging and arrived fairly early at my hosts Harald & Randi. They life in an impressive house in a village of just 1200 inhabitants. They lived and worked on a farm the biggest part of their lives but because of health issues they decided to change that so they build this brand new house. For me the size of it and the space you have around it, is unimaginable in Holland.
They have 2 daughters and one son. One of her daughters has a Dutch boyfriend and his son Hans Ivar came by later for dinner. Harald and Randi have a strong connection with Holland, they found it very similar to Norway and like to go there for holidays.
Because it was early I had time do some periodic tasks, I cleaned the car from the inside and gave the outside a wash for the first time this trip. It looks brand new.
For dinner they introduced me to some kind of fishballs, I’m not a big fish eater so it’s alway an surprise if I like it or not but these ones were excellent.
After dinner I went for a drive with Harald through town and looked for some photo opportunities. A few 100 meters we drove though a unpaved road, luckily Harald knew exactly where are the stones were so he guided me through it. At the end of it we took some great pictures, see below.
When we got back I watched Germany – France together with his son. Unbelievable that the final is Portugal – France, who would ever thought that. I’m not a fan of Portugal with all their dirty players and Christina so let’s hope France will win the Euro.
