We are off again, this time to Norway, with Purdy!

A short drive to Harwich and an uneventful overnight ferry to Holland started our new adventure!

Purdy has her new passport but she does need a worming tablet before we enter Norway so we have booked an appointment at a vets at Wildeshausen in Germany. We managed to get the times mixed up and arrived an hour early but luckily this was no problem. An Aldi next door provided some supplies including some lovely cherries!

After two days slogging main roads full of roadworks, with nice overnights at Wildershausen in Germany and Lystrup in Denmark, we had a shorter day to Hirtshals, Denmark for the ferry to Kristiansand in Norway on Fjordline's mighty catamaran - Fjord FSTR.

Dogs were allowed in this lounge and
out on the deck.



Our first night in Norway was beside a river, perfect for a swim! So far the scenery reminds us of Canada.


The water was actually quite warm!


It was a bit hot for Purdy though!



We then headed further inland to Lunde where we will base ourselves for several days and where Tas is going to be joining us for a week.
