I drove from the small town of Finnsnes, Norway to the large, far northern city of Tromsø. The drive includes huge, dramatic bridges over gorgeous fjords, a car ferry that I was warned might not survive the windy crossing, and unbelievable scenery everywhere. Everything was even better in the foggy moodiness of a rainy day in September.

Jeremy -- What an adventure! How wonderful of you to take us along. This whole trip, like all the other ones you've taken us on, somehow makes the unfamiliar familiar and vice versa. At 89, I feel like my travel days are done, but as long as you have these RU-vid trips (and I have watched some of them many times), I feel adventurous and alive. -- charlie, sacramento CA

@T1DWanderer Год назад

Great to hear that, Charlie! I'm glad you're able to travel along via the videos. I do like to bring the strange and unfamiliar places to people in my videos :)

Excellent video. Been to Norway 🇳🇴. Love the Scandinavian countries. They seem organized and make sense. Takk. 😊😊

@T1DWanderer 10 месяцев назад

Agreed

@clarkmadrosen1780 10 месяцев назад

@T1DWanderer hope to see more videos from Scandinavian countries. Be safe too. 🙏

I have to give you credit for trying to pronounce every norwegian word. Your "norwegian" is not that bad :)

@T1DWanderer Год назад

Well that's good news, thanks. I actually think I did slowly get better during this trip too. My ø sounds got a little more natural (I hope!)

Nice ferry ride and an invigorating splash in the valley! Looking forward to the next episode!

@T1DWanderer Год назад

More splashing to come!

I viewed the post-ferry portion twice because I was so mesmerized by the misty wonder of it all. Ooh, those angels at 18:22, lol.

@T1DWanderer Год назад

Thanks! That was a very memorable experience

@PrimeTimeTravelers Год назад

What an epic ferry ride! Love that! And the scenery on this drive is just gorgeous! Man are we jealous! Safe travels and talk more soon!

@T1DWanderer Год назад

Thanks very much. It was a magical place to drive through -- hard to capture it all!

@@T1DWanderer you did a great job though!

@coolivato Год назад

Nice video! Where did you pay for the ferry And how much did it cost?

@T1DWanderer Год назад

Thanks. I was using a rental car and the ferries/toll bridges were added to the bill when I finished my trip. Don't remember this ferry exactly but maybe around US$10 or so?

My grandmother and mother were both born in Sweden, near where you washed your face with the river water. Just as I did in a Siera Mountains stream many years ago. Now, being older and wiser, I can't help but remember that even those crystal-clear streams are full of virus particles, as is most everything on earth. Still a wonderful experience. Good video.

@T1DWanderer Год назад

Thanks. Yeah I wasn't sure how clean the water actually was, I just got caught up in the scenery, what can I say!

@exentr Год назад

@@T1DWanderer I am local. We concider most water in the area as as clean as it gets. We do not hesitate to drink water from streams and lakes. We drink water direct from the tap. Rarely if a filter in the water supply need service, is broken, we can still drink the tap water without boiling. Thank you for the enthusiasm you show while travelling and making vlogs from this part of Norway!

@BobbyJett1 Год назад

Oh man - you did it again! You gotta stop dipping your hand in the water. Last time there was a dead fish in the water. This time you ignored what the moose probably did in the water upstream from where you were. 🤦‍♂️

@T1DWanderer Год назад

Haha it only makes me more in tune with the landscape

@dreamshooter90 Год назад

Båtnhamn. Båtn, literally translated into a "Bottom" is a short valley dug out of solid rock by glaciers and freezing and thawing processes. Botn have semi-circular cross-sections in the inner part, often with a small lake or glacier at the bottom and are characteristic of eroded landscapes. The first part of the name is likely what was the name of an old farm near by. Hamn of course means harbour. To make it more confusing it was ones named Stufunes. Of course Wikipedia would never do me teach me wrong.

@T1DWanderer Год назад

Wow interesting info. Thanks! I had it all wrong 🫢

@wirkola1 Год назад

Why didn’t you stop for coffee when you drove by my house? Nice video

@T1DWanderer Год назад

I was distracted by the natural beauty all around. Next time!

@DoubleOld7 Год назад

The further north you go the more stunning the scenery and quaint and colorful the towns and cities. 💗🇸🇯

@T1DWanderer Год назад

Thanks! I agree; I loved this drive, but some of my favorite places are still coming up later

@1973sonvis Год назад

Great video! But you need to work on your Ø's! :)

@T1DWanderer Год назад

Yes I sure dø

@1973sonvis Год назад

@@T1DWanderer Wups! Dø means die. Please don’t. Try using the English sounds instead, like nurse (nørse) or burn (børn), then you get pretty close to the Norwegian ø. Nice videos! I’m from Tromsø. 😊👍🏻
