We planned our route on the map and used the GPS to set our nights destination. The GPS unit took us a different route than I had planned and I caught it in time to make an alternate route to go back to where we could pick up the planned route. It turned out great because we saw some really nice country on the "detour". One place we had to wait for quite a long time due to road construction. The entire road was blocked with a machine that makes cement guard rails to follow the contour of the road. Interesting but it sure is slow. But we had all day and we knew we would be able to get to our hotel in time. The place we reserved had a minor problem with the previous guests wanting to stay longer so they offered a free upgrade to a little private cabin instead. Sure we didn't mind! It was lovely.

We saw a few of these little fjord huts. I think they watch for salmon running in them? |

Picturesque everywhere, on the detour. |

We got stopped here for about an hour I think. This machine creates the cement guard rails but fills the entire road and there are no alternate routes any where close by. |

Too bad the drive way to the left didn't connect back up to the road, it was a dead end to that house. |

Many of the roads are small like this one. |

After getting to the end of the small fjord detour we got out and had a little break. Here is our cute VW UP car. |

This dragon fly granted my wish to land on me. I was able to watch him eat some bugs while flying around me. |

Lovely farms and towns all along the fjords with great big mountains behind them. |

This is our lovely little cabin by the fjord that they offered because the hotel guests wanted to stay longer in the room we reserved. |
