Life's a Stitch

And more recently life’s a creative adventure with some travel thrown in.

Our second experience on one of Norway’s spectacular scenic routes, this time on the Geiranger-Trollstigen (the troll’s path) Highway. 

 

Stop #1 was outside of the village of Valldall for world famous strawberry cake.

Then on to Gudbrandsiuvet gorge.

Across the road is the spectacular Juvet Landscape Hotel, with simple but luxurious cabins built to blend with the land. Many have this spectacular view.

The scenic highway took us to the Trollstigen viewpoint, which was the highlight in terms of breathtaking views.

Yes we drove down those hairpin turns without guardrails, only stones to keep us on the road.

 

We arrived at our friends’ hillside cabin in Vinstra. This is the view followed by  the painting I gave them as a gift, based on a photo of the house taken last winter.
