Stavanger to Arneberg Norway

July 26 - August 1, 2019

We saw a lot in our last week in Norway. When we came to our border crossing point into Sweden, we weren't ready to leave. We decided to stay in Norway for a few more days and turned north. It was wonderful.

City park in Stavanger

It was the first day of Gladmat, the annual food festival, when we visited Stavanger.

Of course lefsa was available. We have been eating lefsa for the past month. It was sad when our last package was gone.

Street art along the waterfront

Gamle Stavanger - old town filled with 18th and 19th century wooden houses.

We visited our friends Erik and Randi for a couple of days. We were very lucky to enjoy delicious home cooked norwegian meals.

Madland Havn - our free camping spot in a small harbor along Hwy 44.

Huge boulders were used to fence the pasture just behind our parking spot.

We watched a beautiful sunset.

Sogndalstrand - love these seaside villages.

Many of the houses in Sogndalstrand had small lending libraries on the front of the house.

 

Hwy 44 - this section of the road uses tunnels and cliff hanging switch backs to get to the fjord below.

House under the mountain.

Hwy 44 - some stretches of the road are very narrow.

Wildflowers in every direction at Molen.

Flekkefjord - We arrived in pouring down rain, but luckily it stopped so we were able to get out and enjoy the town.




Wooden boats in Stavern

Trail out to Verdens Ende - The World's End translated to english.


Vippefyret - a replica of an old lighthouse.



Hof Church

Arneberg Church - Hof and Arneberg is the area that Patti's family immigrated to the US from.
