On the way back from Valdres we also checked out routes in the surrounding of the highest peak in Norway, Mount Galdhoppigen. We hope we can make it soon from the boat to the top on skis?

Sailing into Kaupanger:

Thanks to Odd Tufte and Christian Zurbuchen we are now safely moored in Kaupanger near Sogndal. At night we made a Swiss dish for Odd and his kids:

The next day we made a wonderful hike with two other families we met overlooking the anchorage of Kupanger:

From there we went visiting schools in the area. Dario did a lecture for the Sogndal Campus of Western Norway University and we had a big public presentation in Sogndal.

We celebrated on the 16th of October the birthday of Laura and Dario first on the boat and then in Odd Tufte’s house. The traditional “treasure hunt” we did in the pitch dark.
