All Towing Posts – This tag marks all posts where we were travelling between stopping sites while towing the caravan. It does not include sightseeing trips.
Neset Camping had served its’ purpose in giving us a week off of travelling, spending, getting the blog back on track, and taking time to relax. It is a very nice site to stay on. Nice position, good, clean facilities and friendly.
The only fly in the ointment has been the weather. The last three nights we have been kept awake by torrential rain and very high winds. We noticed that the level of the Byglandsfjorden had risen by about a foot during our stay.
We had spent a large amount of money lately. New tyres for the car, brake parts for the caravan and car, expensive sites, diesel covering countless kilometres down this huge country, and essentials like wine, gin & beer, it had all mounted up 🙂
In an effort to reduce expenditure for a while, we perused the Camping Card app and found the nearest site offering an off peak discount was near Byglandsfjord, Neset Camping. The site would be 190NOK per night instead of 300 odd in most places, and, as a bonus, didn’t charge extra for a shower.
I had spent most of Thursday morning replacing the caravan brakes and the friction pads in the hitch stabiliser. The caravan was serviceable again 🙂 We were ready to roll.
In the afternoon we had driven out sightseeing and to spend some, unsuccessful, time fishing for tea in the Sorfjorden. The road was bordered by the fjord on one side and countless kilometres of fruit trees on the other. Every now and again there were fruit stalls with honesty boxes.
