It was early in the morning and they were just getting the outdoor venues set-up. They had to be careful because of the high winds.

We’ve made it to the top of Pulpit Rock after a four kilometer hike through the mountains.

Views are simply spectacular!

Tonight my Wife and I went to a restaurant in Lindeaness Norway which is 5.5 metres under the sea.

We’ve been lucky enough to go to some wonderful restaurants throughout the world and Under is right up there!

The food is wonderful and the view is so very relaxing.

A wonderful night was had by both of us.

I won’t post all the food pics but the meal was superb.

Wow... this is amazing. Than you for sharing.
I've considered moving to Norway, Switzerland or Japan when I retire... but unfortunately I believe my pension as a former US military guy who likes to drive fast cars, ride fast bikes and shoot for recreation.... I just won't be able to afford those luxuries outside of the US, lol

You are very welcome my friend!

It is a most spectacular country with scenery beyond compare.

It is also extremely expensive!!!!

I believe it is the most expensive country in Europe and I believe it.

I too, like fast cars and bikes and it is extremely frustrating driving here. The speed limit on the vast majority of roads is 80kms/hour which is more than enough for most of the roads.

They all just seem to set their control to 80 and just follow each other around. Other than the major highway there are very few overtaking lanes or places to overtake.

There are plenty of places in Europe you can enjoy your “vices”, which coincidentally are very similar to mine, just not Norway or Switzerland.

I hate the heat so we’re thinking of retiring to the north of Italy(Bolzano), in the Dolomites. A much better spot in my opinion and so much less expensive.
