I left Alborg for the second time to take the ferry boat to Norway. While searching for a gas station in Hirtshals, I discovered a light house & a view of the North Sea. I arrived at the ferry landing about an hour before the 12:15 departure time. The ferry arrived in Kristiansand, Norway at 4pm. The rugged coast along my drive reminded me of the coast of Maine. After negotiating the last 10 miles (150 mile trip) on narrow winding Norwegian country roads, I arrived at the Dalsroa Hotel after 8pm. I talked to Truls, the owner of the hotel. He explained that there was once a WW2 German POW camp located very close to the hotel. He also recommended a route I should take tomorrow for my trip north to see the Fjords of Norway.
