Imagine, following the week of botanical art where weather and temperature were ideal, we have had a heatwave. It was hot by UK standards at 30 degrees and over for a whole week. But we are in Norway – further north. It apparently has beaten records for the last 70 years!

Today it broke. We have had some sun, but this afternoon it clouded over and we actually had a little rain. With any luck it will pass over night and we will have a nice day for travelling back home tomorrow. But the hot heat is past and today I can think – just a bit as I am still on holiday.

As my brain is still trying to cool down I will just give you some photos taken at Stavern the day before yesterday.

Time for a relaxing beer:
