Iceland was not cool. Iceland was freezing cold! And the German saying “there is no bad weather, there is only bad clothing” was not including Iceland. I was wearing everything I brought, but I got sick nonetheless. 1 day in bed, 1 day taking it easy and today at 7am we arrived in Olden, Norway after crossing the Norwegian Sea and I felt much better! We headed out for a 6.82 mile hike up the Husten hiking trail and had a great time!
Olden is a 500 resident town at the end of the 66-mile long Nordfjord. We had picture perfect hiking weather. Yuki & Bill are great company and we hang out together for almost everything we do. It is great to see Ted and Bill catch up those 30+ years they lost track of each other and Yuki (Japanese) and I (German) discover so many similarities in our culture how we grew up.
Now we are back on the ship where I’m treating myself to a special massage in the ship’s spa, followed by dinner with Ted, Bill & Yuki and a show at the theatre at 9pm.
Theo, two things. Would I know Bill? Did he go to SHS? And what is Husten? Is it a glacier or something like that? It’s mighty close to Husted and Husted does have it’s roots in Denmark I’m told.
