Having seen the Pulpit Rock from Jammy Dodger, we were determined to climb up to it.  We caught a 09.30 ferry and coach up to “Preikestolen Hytte”, where the 4km hike to the top begins. A good tough climb, took 90 mins to get up, but well worth it.

Goodbye to Danuta, Steve and Mick, who caught the coach to Haugesund and flew back to UK with Ryanair.

Visit from Randi and Ida, who kindly took the empty Norwegian gas bottle off for a refill.

 

 

Jammy Dodger will now stay in Stavanger until Neil arrives on Thursday 9th, then heading off on Friday for Leg 5 to Haugesund, Hardanger Fjord and Bergen. The specialised carbon sail cloth needed for the sail repairs should be with the sailmaker on Monday, so sails should be ready to refit when Neil arrives.
