There was a path leading to a glacier, it was a few kilometres to walk.
The road went uphill and there was a rocky river close by so I went off track and went on next to the river. Anyway, at some point the vegetation ceases to exist, instead you get this grey dry rocky land, with a single tone greenish lake. That was one hell of a place, it blew my mind away. Here:
That was the view from the glacier,which I decided to climb:
That was truly the highlight of the trip..
That was the view from the rocks, glacier's on the left:
Well, that place was really amazing. It felt so unlike Europe, so unlike the rest of Norway. That's a place I MUST visit again.
A little town who-knows-where:
Another old Norwegian church:
We spent a second night in the same hostel. During the rainy evening there were dozens of us watching Eurovision, which included so many cheesy tunes (Ireland's song was especially horrific). Well, that's the way Eurovision is, but everybody still watches it....(including me).
After a bad night's sleep we headed back off to Oslo. It was mostly rainy there sadly. Visited some museums, had some free time, went back to the hostel, after which I explored the suburbs alone.
Next morning, we started going back, popped through a cave painting museum in Sweden and arrived in the port of Stockholm in the evening. I visited the buffet on the ship, that was the first proper dinner I had had on the trip. After a sleepless night, we were once again in Turku. No time to look around this time, we continued to Helsinki, a two hour ride which felt like 15 minutes. Ship, arrived back in Tallinn. The first thing I had to do after returning was visit the supermarket, because Estonian prices felt really heavenly compared to Scandinavia's ones.
It was a nice trip, better than the Russian trip back in September (though that was fun too).
