On a brighter note...

I'm not just going to leave it there though, things have brightened up since then:
  • My recovery coke and apple used up my last pennies to within 5p!
  • My indestrucible camera proved itself by surviving the 30mph fall!
  • The precious Werthers Originals were the first item recovered after the bag-burst!
  • The following ferry was free!
  • The campsite was on the doorstep of the ferry terminal!
  • We met 'Lakes Dave' at the campsite (riding north) who let us use his mob to ease home nerves and gave us some great tips for the route to Bergen (thanks Dave!)
  • We managed to hold down food and water last night!
  • It's raining today! (While we're warm indoors in Trondheim)
  • Managed to buy a cheap replacement phone in a shopping mall!
  • We're in the best library ever built (museum/gallery/awesome design & features)
  • We changed our Swedish money to Norwegian!
  • We've become uncharacteristically interested in any kind of shop....because it's a shop!
  • We might even have a celebratory Curry / cinema trip / Irish bar excursion this afternoon, the joys of civilisation!
And to prove it all...






Wool warehouse anyone?






So all is well, we're back fit and fighting and enjoying a lovely overcast midsummers day in Trondheim ready for our ride to Bergen over the following week.

Expecting some massive fjords, hill climbs, tunnels and a couple less ferries.

So for now... Har deh bra!
