Think the climbing is over... yay! Time to look for a slightly wider part of the track where we can sit & have lunch!
I told Pratiwi it would make for a better pose if she let go of the cable, but for some reason she wasn't keen!
Tiny area of clear land hundreds of metres up a cliff above a fjord. Good place for a farm, ja? That's Skagefla farm!
... still climbing... although it's worth stopping once in a while to admire the views of Geirangerfjord below.
Dropped of by the little sightseeing/ferry boat it's time to start climbing. We're heading for Skagefla farm.
Short walk up the 'waterfall steps' & to the little church in Geiranger. Nice view, but it's better from higher up
Random pictures from the Norwegian road. This is the '63' heading South from Trollstigen. Lovely.
Not really best way to finish an all day hike: slippery roots galore on a very steep slope! Still an epic day though!
Pratiwi negotiating part of the, "It's not dangerous, honest!" section. To be fair, it's not as bad as it looks
Hiking along rather slim ridge with the aid of chains. I enjoyed this but someone else said it was scary. Pfft
Short(ish) hike up the hill (Milthaugen I think) behind campsite. Bit misty and wet at the top! Still fun though
Just found this spot by Langfjorden for the night (or longer...?). Someone seems happy with the location!
We made it to Norway! First impressions: Views from the road so far & this random coastal spot would say it seems OK!
Lunch in Sankt Peter. As in 2012: Yum! Pork, onions, potato, cheese & beer: Love it! Sat under red awning, sorry!
View from Les Roches du Diable (Devil's Rock). Don't know where the name came from, it's a rather nice place!
Short hike up to Roche des vieux chevaux (great views down to the site we're staying at) & Lac de Lispach.
Tonight we find ourselves in the beautiful courtyard of an old German weingut. I'm rather enjoying the randomness
Pratiwi & I have an understanding post sightseeing: she gets coffee & cake & I get beer... & some of her cake!
Roaming London like a couple of backpackers In past life I would walk through Liverpool St station daily. Surreal!
Catching up in London. Sydney must be expensive now as the cost of a pint in poncy City bar seemed rather reasonable!
Lunch at Royal China in Bayswater. Deep fried duck rolls. Say. No. More! Plus other goodies. Yuuuum! :P
When one is in London, one must partake in dinner in Mayfair, darling. Pies & beer & silliness at The Windmill. Yum!
Some sights of York before lunch by the river while entertained by local wildlife. Then short stroll on walls. Nice!
Feeding ducklings at Naburn Lock campsite. The little fellas come running if they think you have food! Sooooo cute
Afternoon tea in Betty's, Harrogate. "Some cream, sir?" "Just a little" Ends with more cream than cake! Tragic!
Us city slickers are amused by the most mundane country stuff: feeding chickens at Howgill Lodge campsite.
Last bridge into town after our windswept outing on Loughrigg Fell. Happy days!
Walk into town deserves a treat, right? Beers & dinner in the White Lion, Ambleside. Challenging, but I managed
Chef Pratiwi hard at work in our motorhome kitchen. Bacon is on the menu. Yum!
Fame! http://www.yorkpress.co.uk/indep...
Morning stroll by the lake shore next to Castle Howard. Saying hello to some of the locals along the way... quack!
Me: Let's go on deck & take silly pictures by the white cliffs of Dover. Pratiwi: I'd rather not! Can't think why!
Dessert from the restaurant? Nooooo... from a counter on the street. Waffle & ice cream of course!
Messing about by the windmills in Brugge
Short stop in Koblenz. Here's a few sights we glimpsed on a quick walk. Love the spring flowers here! #OrrrrPretty
Morning stroll in the hotel grounds. Lovely place, soooo comfortable. Don't worry - we got a great rate
Freebies from the sponsors. Shame it's their alcohol free product! Guess not everyone on course is 18+
Positioning for first passage of the riders. Easy enough this early to stand right on the corner bottom of Cauberg.
Currywurst for lunch. It's only sausage & chips covered in spicy (not by our standards, mind) ketchup but still yum!
Messing about by the river Evening walk along the Mosel from a small weingut we are staying at in Ediger-Eller.
Afternoon team in Sankt Goar. Had to put up with apple strudel in lieu of scones. It's Germany after all Yum!
Lunch stop by the Rhine. Hearty German food all round - dumplings & stew. Very quiet here off season, nice for us
Dinner at Greek restaurant in Germany. Confused & didn't know what we were ordering but was tasty when it arrived!
Messing about in a German Ikea. Could we live in a 55m² apartment? Yes, as long as we don't have too many pillows!
Passing through Speyer so stopped for quick walk. There's a huge Cathedral here but it's quite plain inside.
Dropped by Landau for lunch. Ended up in town square with lots of blossom on the trees this time of year. Very nice.
Remember Neustadt square we vowed to luncheon in? German's aren't much on presentation, but it was so tasty! Yum!
Rhein valley in spring & fruit trees by vineyards are in blossom. We took a short walk near Gimmeldingen to enjoy
Jimbaran Beach once the sun has set... & what happens when your tripod (aka wife) moves mid shot Goodnight Bali!
Bali Bakery 'v' Holland Bakery. Which is the best Cheesy John in Bali? We vote... drum roll... Holland Bakery!
