Up this am for a walk around the neighbourhood before breaky, then returned the car.  Hotel stairway .  Duxiana makes beds and mattresses. These models were in the stairwell.  Advertising bike.  Old telephone booth.  Doors to a loft.  Old building.  Thought this was a good omen for the Tigers, but not to be.  Sculptures on a ball.  One ugly guy yelling at the bird.  The bird with another sculpture behind  Fountain in the park.  Little did I know we’d be sailing under the bridge later.  Another manhole cover.  The umbrellas by daylight  Breakfast view.  The canal.  Last night we saw boat trips that you hire the electric boat and drive around the canals yourself. I booked it all online. We walked about 5 minutes from hotel to the jetty, picked a boat, started it using the app and then navigated around the canals with the app also. It told us how long left and provided information on the sights along the ...

Did a dumb thing this morning. Decided to wash my pants and shirt. And what’s dumb about that you may ask. Well after shower etc I realised I’d left my Oslo Pass in the pocket. It had fallen to pieces- bugger. Took it downstairs to see what could be done - we had purchased them at hotel resepsjon. They had no answers but promised to phone about it after 9.  Back to the room to do some blogging. Then down for our most awesome Oslo Thon Cecil Hotel breakfast.  Back to reception- they had phoned and emailed with no luck and suggested going to the Infornation Centre. This was in the opposite direction to our plans. So the remains of the ticket went into a zip lock bag.  That’s the remainder of my Oslo Pass.  And it’s envelope for safe keeping .  It should look like this!!!! Off we went to catch our Hop on Hop Off boat at the City Hall pier just down the end of our street.  After a bit of a hiccup waiting at wrong spot we just managed the 10.15. They let me off ...

9.9.18 Day 10 - Hurtigruten-Harstad, Tromsø

After a big day yesterday from crossing the Polar Circle to chasing the Northern Lights we allowed ourselves a sleep in, with a meeting time of 10 after breakfast. We all failed. I was up just after 6, no real light in the sunrise so laid in for a bit before shower and out to see what there was to see. We docked at a little port of Harstad at 6.45 for an hour so I got off and had a wander around the town.  A peg sculpture in the main street Buildings More beautiful old buildings. So many towns have stunning flower displays and Harstad was no exception. I love the colours. This window was a bit different A sculpture by the dock.  Some sailor I guess An old Customs building I suspect And from the other side in early morning light Harstad’s free camping area maybe. Walking back to the ship. Very few got off so I was keen to be back on board early The water is so clear and clean. Nordkapp tightly tied to dock. Safely back and ready to board...
