Show me your ways, O LORD; teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth, and teach me: for You are the God of my salvation; I wait for you…
Psalm 25: 4,5.
Molde
A bronze beauty.
a gift to Molde in 1971.
Molde is modern with the sea front in view from many roads.
Not only pansies this time.
The sea, the sky, and a wooden walkway.
Let’s leave Molde for the Atlantic Road 64 . It runs between the villages of Larvagin in Averoy and Vevang in Hustadvika. The 64 is built on several small islands and Skerries, which are connected by several causeways, viaducts, and eight bridges – the most prominent being the Storeisundet Bridge.
This is how we saw it.
It had cleared and was no longer raining.
Press on The Ford GT drives the iconoc Atlantic Road to see how it was used in an advertisement.
Then let’s look at the painting of a famous Norwegian Harald Sohlberg 1869-1935.
This painting was chosen as Norways national painting in 1995.
Harald Sohlberg enjoyed landscape painting and there is a sketch of him painting outside when it is so windy that he has to hold down the canvas with ropes and stakes while he worked with his dog, Fram nearby. He wasn’t keen on including people or animals.
This painting is hanging at the end of a hall, taking a wall of its own, with other moonlit paintings painted by various artists, hanging in height order of the moon rising and setting. A pleasant way to enjoy the movement of the moon around the earth.
While travelling, it is a privilege to see the beguiling Norwegian landscape in rain or sunshine. Here are a few scenes from the different places we have seen.
A country proud of all its resources.
It has been good to have our son with us. It’s a little busier but enjoyable.
Take care,
Sandy.
What a magical looking place! So different from our tough, rough, dry home! I think I could live there in spite of the cold.
That road is amazing!
It does seem soft. Far fewer people. The whole country has approximately 5 million and London has 10million. It is a special country.
