1. 53^ Stage : Karajok – Repvag

 

2. Map construction

 

3. Although the night before improbably have met in the hotel another Italian Beppe ... he bike ..pedalo in solitude

 

4.Beppe anywhere soon,x 'his intention is to make a unique tirade(230km) up to Honninsvag(30 km to K.Nord) where he booked the accommodation

 

5... I recommend to book, otherwise great risk without accommodation at 0 ° .The gent. hotel maid helps me find 1albergo Repvag

 

6. ma..dopo a 20 km in a landscape of mostly desolate,I reach Beppe who has problems with the wheel of his original and patented trolley

 

7. ..and Not just trudging on climbs

 

8. In pretend he descended to remain slightly detached in order to give him moral support ... and for the rest tuttok

 

9…tanto che sembriamo una coppia collaudata da anni…lascio a Beppe la scelta delle soste ..il come ed il quanto

 

10. in una di queste soste fotografo un curioso mini water..a misura di bimbo..che non avevo mai visto prima d’ora

 

11. Beppe benché organizzi viaggi in Norvegia (almeno cos’ dice lui)… e conosca bene il Paese..filma ogni cosa

 

12…..ed io ne approfitto x lustrarmi gli occhi,

 

13…farmi una cultura e perché no farmi una cultura

 

14…. and why not ... look around and take it easy for once

 

15The beard ... predictions ... it's a beautiful day, even if it is very cold,, between the fjords you can catch a glimpse of the newly fallen snow

 

16…. and always in the fjords, you can even see slabs of ice ... brr ... brrr..brrrr ...

 

17.every ... So ... Beppe stops and takes a deep breath and films .... films or x breather?

 

18.and ... While I wait for him

 

19.ne X ... take this opportunity to photograph details

 

20Develop new scenarios ...

 

21Even ... reindeer ... not finding better ... it happens that they go on the roof to graze

 

22. There are in fact several houses from the roof of grass x the best insulation ...

 

23X ... fight the Grim isolation ... in almost every village there is a church ...

 

24Some villages ... (In truth, few) have even a small school

 

25 ..but life here must be difficult to deal with motorcycle

 

26…. You can see a few people ... maybe engaged to clean your roof

 

27Traffic is non-existent ... the ..this see more boats than cars

 

28The air is clear ... ... and pure.. the feeling that tingles in the nose and expands the lungs.. Apparently enters directly into the circulation and muscles

 

29A unique feeling ... but it is beautiful.. live here, I repeat must be very hard if you do not you are born

 

30If ... we also consider the long winter nights and the exclusive economic resource

 

31.. ..in these small villages made of the inhabitants are fishermen only ...

 

32Necessarily ... and everything revolves around fishing

 

33... There are few other communication networks

 

34. Beppe is Veneto and makes me a detailed account on cod cod that is obtained by salting

 

35. The stockfish is always cod, but preserved by drying , well-known fact is that Norwegian

 

36Continues ... our brand.. I confess che..anche if I lose a little bit of media the presence of a companion is refreshing

 

37Also ... it was just as comforting ..in diverse and long tunnels.. to go

 

38. The road continues along the fjords; is carved into the rock harder

 

39..and it's all an inside and outside the inlets ... + o – larghe

 

40Hard ... there are plenty of tears already glimpsed at a distance

 

41. ..as the snow-capped peaks in the background of the various loops ...

 

42Well ... you can see in the bottom, several fish, sometimes huge ... Beppe tells me that otters are

 

 

43. We ride in a nature that seems untouched

 

44. ..of course ... we cycle in the largest Norwegian fjord

 

45The higher you climb ... and the more you ... and freezes on some "snags" touch the snow

 

46Still crowded ... the snow ... the sides of the road

 

47. With Beppe within the department of Nordkapp

 

48. ..Pochi km dopo e dopo 190 km c / a we leave ... Beppe goes 30km x other, verso Honninsvag ed io mi fermo a Repsvag

 

49Seemed at hand ... but that is not visible from the picture, and I'll have to do more km, within and around a small peninsula

 

50. and 'late ..the sun starts to go down, but it is only an illusion ...

 

51. Repsvag ... some reindeer welcome me ...

 

52... With lots of flags ... the flags are hung ... that homes

 

53. In the village there is also a small church with a small cemetery

 

54Do not miss the small port ...

 

55Missing ... the lighthouse ... but not the guardian

 

56. My accommodation

 

57. I shower and do a short walk.. meeting German tourists returning children have fun playing the same ... tell me ... that

 

58…Some days I go to NordKapp with their camper x take a souvenir photo.. but to no avail x'il bad weather will not allow it!!!

 

59. Mi siedo nel tavolino in fondo a dx con una visuale da mozzafiato. Attendo x lungo tempo la cena ma ne valeva la pena ..ottima

 

60…logicamente a base di pesce…il bel quadro a mio lato… non rispecchia minimamente la bellezza del reale che mi sta attorno

 

61…un paesaggio da favola

 

62. la terrazza della locanda da sul porticciolo

 

63.…con tanto di baccalà appeso

 

64. ..non inganni la luce…

 

65.. ormai e’ quasi mezzanotte…ma nonostante ciò, alcuni pescatori partono x la pesca

 

66. Altri pescatori sopraggiungono.. e mi invitano ad uscire con loro al mattino presto…

 

67…ma viste le + che precarie previsioni meteo,gentilmente rifiuto.Il tempo dovrebbe rimanere bello fino alle12h.. poi pioggia a dirotto

 

68. Subito il pesce viene ripulito

 

69. …e messo negli appostiti contenitori

 

70. Then ... to be allocated to the market of large cities

 

71. And 'the last night that step so far north

 

72.And ... given that German tourists, continue to make merry, I decide to take a walk

 

73. On the promontory there are piles of wood that tell me they serve as a beacon of reference x when there is dense fog

 

74.autoscatto ... ...

 

75. I had been warned that the midnight sun has a particular light but I do not think it was so seductive

 

76.. light plays hide and seek ... ..pare disappear

 

77.. but then reappeared a moment later ..., with equal splendor

 

78Undisturbed ... even the reindeer continue to "ruminate"

 

79While the landscape ..., seems like magic ..mutarsi

 

80The illusion ... a moment of sunset

 

81Already ... but the sun is revealed.. and its rays strike ...

 

82. a snowmobile.. here tell me that winter is the only means of transport that works x 'even the fjord freezes

 

83.The sun will be confirmed?..I miss her so little to the goal finale..speriamo.La light reveals and conceals at the same time and confused ...

 

84All our ... large and small ... miseries.. but nevertheless

 

85.. in the face of so much splendor and magnificence ..elevo my THANK YOU.. M'illumino of immense and as a reflection of in-conditioned ...

86. .PREGO ... ...
