Unfortunately, today was the day we had to pack up and leave this beautiful place. It was hard to leave such a stunning view and such deluxe accommodations! We are so fortunate to have such generous friends as Geoff and Pam who allow us to share the benefits of their home exchange arrangements to stay in such great places.
On the road to Oslo, a six plus hour trip, again through amazing scenery. One stop for coffee in Gol at the same little bakery where we had stopped for coffee on the way up. No drama returning the car and eventually getting the right train from the airport into town. Found the Hotel Vernandi with no problem and checking in was all done on a machine, including activating our own key cards! Who needs humans?!!
Irv and Geoff decided it was beer o’clock, so went down to the bar at the hotel, while Pam and I headed off to suss out a dinner cruise for tomorrow night and find a grocery store. We were successful on both counts and checked out some restaurants on the way back. We opted for a Chinese restaurant about a block away and had a very good meal there.
Not a very exciting day, but then travel days usually aren’t!
