North and then east

As the weather was fine, I set out around ten in the morning. Sadly, it quickly became overcast and I even got some rain now and then. Boooo!

Again, I stopped for one of these.

I set off across Valdresflye and up north, I took the road that goes through Heidal. Very pretty valley with a pretty church.

Just behind it was a grand old farm.

I hit the motorway shortly thereafter and went south to Ringebu, then I took the road east across some of the most beautiful mountain areas in the country.

It reminds me of Scotland in all its barren beauty.

I also shot two videos:

Down in the valley on the other side I had to stop and take a pic of this huge ass moose. They call it the world's largest, but apparently there's something of a contest going on with the Canucks over this.

After having broken just about every speed limit in two counties and passed I don't know how many cars, I had to stop for ten minutes behind this fucker and a whole line of others in front of me, because of road works. If there's a message from the Universe here somewhere, I don't particularly care to hear it.

It was getting late in the afternoon, and as I still had a couple of hours driving before I got home I then drove straight west to Hamar, then north to the bridge across Lake Mjøsa, south to Gjøvik and over the hills to home, sweet home. A nice, long drive.
