Heading back to the tent.

Horseid is one of the most scenic as well as isolated beaches of the Lofoten Islands. The beach is a long, narrow stretch of sand wedged between high mountain walls on the northern coast of Moskenesøya. We started later than intended. The most beautiful part was probably between the two passes to Horseid beach. Four of our friends were also coming in today but a little later so we first met them down at the beach when they arrived and we were heading back to the camp. They only had spikes and two of them had to share (one foot each) and unfortunately Rebekka fell and hurt her shoulder on the way back so we helped out with pitching their tent. (But I know know that she'll be ok and nothing broken). Eline had to go back to Svolvær today so I just gave her some hot spiced apple wine before she went off.
