Day 7 – Verdens Ende (Worlds End) to Tonsberg Position: 59:15.98N 10:24.29E A beautiful sunny and still start to the morning
– all hands on deck for ship scrubbing and polishing. We set off under engine and had breakfast on the way
in the cockpit in glorious sunshine while sight seeing up the Tonsberg fjord. Neil had saved us a place on the town dock right
outside the restaurant for lunch. Neil & Randi met us in shorts and came
aboard for drinks. People started to arrive including Jenny and Toby who had
just flown in. 18 of us sat down for lunch in the restaurant for a
noisy meal. We said a fond farewell to Jim & Lesley after
lunch as they left for the airport laden with Norwegian flags for their
children. A short and speedy trip with Neil at the helm of the
Dory took us up to Helgar & Anna’s beautiful waterside home for
glorious sunny afternoon in the garden with a few drinks whilst waiting for the
bridge to open in Tonsberg at 6.00pm. We brought Jammie Dodger down to moor outside the
house with Jan’s cousin’s sons Jonas & Niels and then had an
amazing feast of prawns and crab, strawberries, carrot cake and Martins Bakery
Florentines (Helgar’s favourite) all on a huge table in the garden with
Neil’s family & friends some who arrived speedily by boat. After dinner we were taken in Einer’s boat on a
high speed trip around the The evening was rounded off with a few more beers
round the garden fire. |
