Hemyock to North Cape, Photo Archive 

After reaching North Cape and seeing the midnight sun, the journey back through Norway (Fjord Land) might have been a disappointment. It wasn't ... the scenery was spectacular ! the pictures don't do it justice.

  

MIke on the Artic plane .... bit bleak out here.

The last car we saw was in Honingsvag about two hours ago.
we saw a couple of white tailed eagles here riding the arctic plane in north Norway
This road just seems to go on & on & on & on Mike re-packing after a quick photo stop
A church ! we haven't seen a house in hours !
A house at last ! this is about 2 hours ride from the church Empty road, menacing clouds, dark rocks & cold water. Alta Fjord
The changes in the light alter the look of a place minute by minute Another house in the middle of no-where. Alta Fjord
Alta Fjord with the sun breaking through the clouds. Our home for the night, melting snow made campling a bit damp, so this for £10 was a good deal.
Despite the signs we didn't see any moos Mike didn't see any either However we did see a lot of fjords
Look at the siz of the snow ploughs over here ! Spectacular............
As we travelled south the landscape became greener The views as we rode down the fjords was amazing.
Mike has a little sleep ...... its been a hard day.. Balmy weather 20C A hot day in the Artic !
3 hours more riding and the other side of a Fjord for a quick drink. By 17:30 we were aproaching Narvik and looking for a camp site.
By 18:30 we had found a site with a nice view of the Fjord.

 Mike and I posing by the fjord at Narvik. Over 20c people are out cutting the grass ! and this is way above the Arctic Circle.
View from the tent the next morning 400 Miles North of the Arctic Circle ... can you believe the weather An hous or so later and we are off down the fjords again, great riding, good roads, no traffic.
Still almost no traffic 2 Hours and about 100 miles further on we have a quick rest and look for cars ! amazing place, brilliant riding.
