ok its been a busy week..we met up with peter and glen from bergen and we spent a very nice night by the fire with a few beers…or spirits……the show was fantastic there was a lot of campers there must have been at least a 1000 trucks…..there was no room left to camp and the show was very well attended with lots of ideas for my next project..

 

on the sunday night we were the only ones left in the field and we heard this band tuning up…very loud…so went to investigate and it was only BRIAN ADAMS in the next field doing a gig so we sat by the fire and had 2 hours of rock and roll…..fantastic…...

 

so we have been heading north but last thursday we passed a field that was putting on a show so we turned round and pulled in and asked what was going on….its a tractor festival so we asked if we could stay and they said yes…so we have been here for three days…its got a bar, music ,food…lots of vintage tractors and some steam engines….its GREAT…….we are loving our trip so far….cant wait to get up to you lot….

Was great to meet you Kev, looking forward to seeing you and E at the norwegian Landstreffet, we heard the sound check before Brian Adams, but had to make our errand south as you know.

 

anyway 3800 km, xxx litres of fuel (everything over 1 Litre / 10 Km is for fun).

 

What a fantastisk week, going next year ?

 

planning to get there earlier to get a good spot to camp....

ok made it to sassnits in north germany and had a great day at the port and guess what we found another submarine but this one was british so we spent some time looking round it and spent a great afternoon in the sun before heading to the port and camping for the night on some waist ground by the sea as the ferry to sweden was at 7.45am.

 

we took the ferry and we arrived in sweden at trelliborg at 12am on the dot….headed up the coast for an hour or so then pulled up at a rest area as we were going through a big rain and thunderstorm so we decided to call it a day and spend the night here …but it was a good call as we awoke to glorious sunshine…..we are now sitting in Mc Donalds using there internet and stealing there electricity…….lovin it…...

 

oh and yesterday i bashed my head……..i said things like dam and blast and bother…...

Welcome to Norway, and thank you for som entertaining reading. I met you a few kilometers after you passed Ørje, and waved at you, but I guess you didn't notice, since I was driving my ex-wifes BMW, and not a proper vehicle.

 

Hope you have a nice time here, and that the weather stays nice. :)
