We are trying to understand

A friend of mine has some special abilities...to send souls to the other side which are stuck in between. He said it happened so quickly that he didn't have time to pass over. So my friend will go there on monday and try to send him over. He says he can't see but only feel the energy.

Sweet dreams my friend

 

 


See you on the other side...

Day of sorrow

Ytre Skjelfjord.

Ågvatnet.

Svolvær.

This was to become the most surrealistic day ever.

We had a lot of plans and we thought we would start with Star peak. But when we came there the rock was really wet and also it started raining a little. This was not according to the forecast so we decided quite early this is not a good day and so we turned down again. Instead we were going to Mannen so we drove to Å and went in Ågvatnet. At the end of the valley my phone rang. It was the Red Cross. Missing man in Kabelvåg. Immediately we understod it was our friend. Since his sister yesterday posted on fb to know if anyone seen him. We last had contact on sunday. So I called in to say we would be there in 3 hours (since we were so far from Svolvær). Then we had do get equipment from the depot. We met up at Vestfjord Hotel. Inger was the only one from Vestvågøy and she was going with the dog search team. So I just gave Anne Marit a vest and we went with the Hadsel team and one guy from Vågan. We searched through the small boat harbour, checked every boat. Later we went back do get new directions and something to eat. Two different dogs had marked in the water so they were investigating that. Soon it will be dark. Then they sent us home to continue search next day. We went home and still hoping he would just be in a tent somewhere with the phone out of battery. I was just going to bed when my phone rang. Eline gave me the message of death before I would have to read it in the papers. We are in a state of shock.

Today we tried Cody's new toys - tools for indoor ice climbing. It was a bit weird climbing with those but we made a special route and I guess it will be better next time. Then we went for pizza and they were looking at a house. Later in the evening Anne Marit came driving from Evenes.

We hiked up the ridge to Matmora and down the other side. A bit windy on the summit. Then we hitchhiked back to the car and drove to Kalle where we camped. Cody in the van and me in a tent. We hade a nice fire. Actually we burned a whole table which someone left there. While cooking dinner and having a beer.

Happy shining saturday! Today we went from Borge to Store Skrådalstinden. It was a long and beautiful hike. Tomorrow it will be a lot of rain and wind so I will just stay home and finish unpacking, washing clothes and rest. Just stay home and look out the window and the weather can be as bad as it wants.

Back to 68 degrees north

Leaving Bodø.

Arriving Stamsund.

Lofoten.

It's getting dark.

Almost home.

 After 17 hours on the train I arrived in Bodø at 9.15 so I loaded my bike and found a cafe. To have some COFFEE and something to eat. Reading my book and sat there a while then I went to the harbour to sit in the sun and wait for the boat. It was quite windy but still wonderful. We arrived in Stamsund at 7.30 pm and it took some time unloading the cars and I just managed not to miss the bus to Leknes. Then it was 2 hours until the next one so I just turned on my dynamo and started pedaling. I had an empty fridge but I had some pasta and bread in the freezer so I'll manage, and I had bought some good swedish cheese. Now it feels good to be home again. Unpacking some but too tired to finish. All my clothes are dirty and it feels wonderful to have a shower and sleep in my own bed. I intended to rest tomorrow but I was asked to go hiking and I look forward to walk in my mountains again.

I heard that this guy was famous
 - Sinnataggen.

So I'm back in Oslo to meet Terje and Anne Marit. So I was tourist for a day before I took the night train back north. The Frogner Park was really cool. It has over 200 sculptures all made by Gustav Vigeland.

The Vigeland Park is the world's largest sculpture park made by a single artist, and is one of Norway's most popular tourist attractions. The park is open to visitors all year round.

The unique sculpture park is Gustav Vigeland's lifework with more than 200 sculptures in bronze, granite and wrought iron. Vigeland was also in charge of the design and architectural layout of the park. The Vigeland Park was mainly completed between 1939 and 1949.

Most of the sculptures are placed in five units along an 850 meter long axis: The Main gate, the Bridge with the Children's playground, the Fountain, the Monolith plateau and the Wheel of Life.
