Today is pretty much travel day with a couple of short rides each end. Its going to be; cycle, boat, bus, cycle, taxi, bus, plane. So all in one post today when I can find some wi fi.

The morning ferry takes me down Geiranger fjord, ferries are fairly cheap and much better than the tour boats. A couple of big cruise ships pass on their way to filling up the cafes. Geiranger isn’t much more than a large village and its like trying to get a pie at half time. Incredibly though very few go more than 50 metres and the nice places are beyond that and quiet. All the cruise ship stops have the Troll zone, nothing to do with social networking.

Love the ferries though. Cheese roll, coffee, feet up and unbeatable view.

Then it’s bus to Alesund and get the bike boxed again . But not before one of my two favourite cafes of the trip. Its called Invit and it’s time for an end of trip feast. Hey I’ve done the cycling so feel obliged to fulfil the other two ( not that I haven’t already ..)

So it’s Sky Cafe Air again for the flight back, no one in the other two seats so it’s feet up here too. On the climb out we go over central Norway and the big ice cap visible through thin clouds. Bet there’s some dodgy little roads round there. Next time.
