More visitors in August








 

 



In August more family came to visit. They stayed a little longer so we had time to go out on multiple trips into the area. On these trips we picked blue berries during the walks and enjoyed them on pancakes for breakfast in the sun the next morning. We went fishing near Kvaeoya and caught two fish, (Sei, Coalfish, Koolvis) which were prepared in the oven. We also spent some lazy days in the sun at the beach. Then the parents of Claartje arrived by car and stayed two weekends. Although we had a day of rain at the end of August it was a fantastic summer!

Super Summer,



 
 

  







In the middle of July, Douglas Parents came to visit. With soaring temperatures of even 25 degrees and clear sky’s it was full summer. Barbequing, walking, swimming and a trip to the Lofoten and the Vesterålen, we try to take the best of both the surroundings and the good weather had to offer. We took our car for a great tour from Hartsad to Svolvær, and then on to a place called Stø. In Stø we walked to Nyksund and then drove back to Harstad. 700 km of stunning views and wildlife. Douglas caught three cods, (Kabeljauw/Torsk) which we cleaned in the midnight sun and ate for breakfast. A briljant week!
