Travel Day and Wildflowers

Tuesday was a travel day; we traveled from Oslo to Homborsund on the south coast.  Vivi and Erik have a cottage there overlooking the sea. Erik and Kaelen had a conversation about country music and Erik found the country station in Oslo on the car radio. So it was  three and a half hours of country music traveling along E-18.

We arrived at the cottage in a light mist, but Wednesday began with a cloudless sky. Vivi, Kaelen and I walked across the rugged stone paths to view the light house and the harbor from the peninsula. The wild flowers were amazing. They grow in the crevices of the rocks, along the sandy paths, just everywhere. The colors are so vivid and clear. We picked so many interesting blooms to fashion bouquets and sketch them. 

Here is the view from the deck at 10:30 PM
