Month: August 2019

It rained consistently and heavily all through the night..I really thought we’d float away. The waterfalls around us were coming down with such power it was incredible. We drove up to Stalheim first, on the old main road, not realising

Apparently we’ve only driven about 22 miles today according to the phone spy. The Aurlandsvegen felt more like 122! Another one of Norway’s scenic routes, it went up and up forever and I think it was the narrowest road we’ve
