My travels - Norway on Bike 1997 - 5.day

7.August 1997

This morning I woke up as second. Olga didn't sleep all night, because camping was near of railway, and Olga whole night listened sounds of trains. After washing and breakfast, we left Olympic city Lillehammer.

Our next target was Romsdal. Part of way we spent in the car, but next part, more interesting, we spent on sits of our bikes. Why more interesting, we recognized in a short time. In valley, near of road we found our first waterfalls. We made a lot of photos. At that time we didn't know that we will see much more waterfalls. My physical condition wasn't still good. But I wasn't alone and we wheeled bikes in a group. Together we reached our camp near Romsdalen hills. Camp was situated to mountain valley, near a small lake. But watter was such cold, that nobody try it. But it didn't discourage local boys from jumping in it from near bridge. Together we prepared our meal and built our tents. Then on bikes we visited near village. No pubs was open there, and we returned and in camp we drank tea with plum brandy. It was present from foreign friends of Jarko. It wasn't bad, but Slovak plum brandy used to be more better. At being expected of difficult route we went to sleep rather.
