We are in Egersund now and didn't have an internet connection for a few days. All is well! We are actually on the island of Eigeroy, with the North Sea on the coast! I woke up to the sound of seagulls, sheep bleating and a frog in full symphony this morning! Tonnes drove us down on Friday and we are getting acquainted with some of our other Norwegian relatives. It has been very stormy these last two days, but we have gotten a good taste of what my fisherman-relatives dealt with in the past--lots of wind and rain and splashing gray seas!
Rasmus (Tonnes's brother) is taking us to Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock) on the Lysefjord today, near Stavanger. Be sure to check out all these places on Google map or something. I'll send more photos soon, but must go for now. Ha det....
