frogss29, that was a great drive, even on a dreary drizzly day.
The restaurant - oh, my, that was good food and a good find. After we had driven for two hours thru tiny hamlets with almost no places to eat, it was amazing to arrive at this sophisticated place. Their dining room was full, and 65 of 66 rooms were booked for the night. A bus pulled up filled with people staying there. Given the skinny roads we had driven to get there, clearly it did not come the same route. Their menu description of the property claimed this to be on a list of top 25 places to visit in Norway. I wouldn't doubt it. It was lovely.
The ferry crossing was about 45 minutes. There were 4 cars left behind on our crossing. We arrived quite early for the 4pm crossing, and there were a number of campers in front of us. I think some of them were left from the noon crossing. All of them got on our ship.
Just before you enter Hamn, there is the
Senja Troll Park. It's odd! I liken the experience to driving along an American highway and seeing a paper mache dinosaur.
Thank you for posting this outing.
