Lakes, fjords and glaciers

Today we returned to the mainland.  The day started with breakfast on the deck outside in the morning sun before a leisurely drive back to Evenes airport.  It was a really lovely day so the colours and scenery were magnificent.  We stopped for a quick lunch and arrived at the airport in good time.

The plane arrived on time and the 1.5 hour flight in a prop plane meant we flew relatively low over the mountains and fjords all the way to Trondheim.  Norway has very large expanses of show-stopping scenery with no access or dwellings over hundreds of square miles.  Finally a few farms and towns started to appear and we landed at Trondheim.

A bus from the airport dropped us more or less at the door of our very swish glass and steel hotel and we took a stroll out into town to find dinner.  It looks like a very interesting place to explore on Monday with an old harbour area, a large cathedral and historic areas not to mention some posh shops!  With Norweigan prices, I suspect it will be more window shopping than anything more....
