Hi...................The city of Stavanger is like most other seaside harbour cites, all the same to most people but to boating people fascinating. And this place was. The picture however is a village in Scotland. I liked the contrast between the Pub and the Tower.
The new world order was again evident. Beside the statue of some great leader of Stavanger was a person from a foreign land begging.....
Norway would need to be the richest country on earth with social policies like theirs.
The ferry boat was like most other Danish ferry boats as the Danes seem to do most of the ferrying although this service will soon cease apparently due to the oil prices.
Newcastle was the entry point and I was soon heading north along Hadrians wall. Another fascinating piece of history. If you have not read about Hadrian he is interesting as well.
So I rode on over the Firth of Forth bridge at rush hour on Friday.....they have that sort of silliness even here.
Found a small pub in a small village and dined in the public bar with the locals. They were a good lot with a great deal of "crack" which I learned meant to enjoy the company, have a laugh or similar..
