Sunday 23rd & Monday 24th September 2018
Despite the inclement weather we had enjoyed our time at Ballum Camping. We had decided to stay for a third night and do a long drive down to Lutzs’ on Monday.

Implementing Plan B
Friday 21st September 2018
Plan A, to store the van and car here and fly home for a few days from Copenhagen, hadn’t worked. The site we were on didn’t like the idea of storing the car & van for us, nor did another I’d emailed.
Takk Norge
Saturday 15th to Monday 17th September 2018
We have been in Norway for 50 days today and not a day has gone by without seeing something amazing. Takk Norge.
However, the weather of late hasn’t been that kind and we have undoubtedly spent more than we planned to spend. The decision was to move south taking in a visit to Copenhagen, a place neither of us had been before.
As the checkout time is 16:00 at Oslo Camping and we still had 4 hours validity left on our Oslo Passes, before leaving we drove up to visit the nearby Holmenkollen National Ski Arena. This has facilities for ski jumping, cross country skiing and biathlon. The viewing platform at the top of the ski jump offers fantastic views over Oslo and its’ surrounding area. There is a fine museum covering over 4000 years of skiing history.

Oslo Bound
Thursday 13th September 2018
We left Rjukan Hytte & Caravan Park this morning bound for Oslo. We didn’t know exactly where at this point, we would choose somewhere nearer the target.
This site had been OK for a short term stay. The field was a little damp under foot but the car pulled the caravan out without problem. The facilities are a little tired and in need of refurbishment. The showers are just warm enough with little flow, but at least we weren’t charged for them.

Into Telemark
Monday 10th September 2018
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.
