Monday 25th of July

Vi voknet opp i fjæra på Myrbærholmen utenfor Kristiansund. Vinden blåste friskt, og da vi tok ned teltet dro vi nesten på paragliding. Da det etter hvert begynte å høljregne og vi ikke følte for å dusje på den måten, dro vi til badeland nærmere bestemt Atlanterhavsbadet i Kristiansund. Der stod forlystelsene og fornøyelsene i kø. Markus tok baklengs salto med skru fra stupetårnet mens René tok barnesklia. Da vi traff utseendemessig pensjonsalder bestemte vi oss for på pakke sekken, nærmere bestemt baggen, og dro videre i retning Trondheim. Der tok vi en titt på super-Andrés tidligere hjem. Deretter dro vi videre forbi ”Helvete”, Kringla og ikke minst Stiklestad der Olav den Hellige ble drept av en stikling under slaget i 1030. Slag er fortsatt en vanlig dødsårsak på Stiklestad men berører i dag en eldre samfunnsgruppering. Kjørerturen møtte sin ende på et jorde noen mil nord for Steinkjær. Det var en blindvei, så vi slo opp teltet der.

We woke up by the sea on our small island outside of Kristansund. During the night the wind had picked up, and by the time we woke up, it had gotten quite windy. As we packed the tent, we almost ended up paragliding. When it also began to rain we decided that wasn’t the way we wanted to shower. So we drove to Kristiansund to find the local indoor swimming pool, know as Atlanterhavsbadet. It was a nice place with huge swimming pool, a diving tower (3-, 10-, and 15feet), a water slide, and different saunas. Markus backflipped from the diving tower, while René tried the water slide in the baby pool. When we turned more wrinkly than the average retired person we decided pack our bag and leave, heading in the direction of Trondheim where we visited one of Super-André’s childhood homes. We drove through Hell,(yes Hell), where we were actually quite surprised by the weather. It was much colder than expected, and it was even raining. We passed Stiklestad where Saint Olaf of Norway was killed at the Battle of Stiklestad in 1030. Finally finding a field outside of Steinkjær, we put up the tent next to a creepy barn and said good night.

Due to the fact that it was raining all day long, and due to the fog, we didn't take more than 3 pictures.
