Very nice set of photos Mark. Now I can see what the wife was banging on about! 🙂
That was all down to the company she was keeping….😉
Eh… I dunno what the answer is to that! Lol 🙂
Sorry mate I thought you meant the comments my wife had made against this post….about it being the best holiday ever 😊
No no, I was talking about when my Mrs went there with her sister earlier this year. I’ve never set foot in the place so it’s nice to see where they sat and had fish ‘n’ chips (as Norwegians do!) 🙂
Ah, well in which case I apologise for the confusion 😊
No worries mate 🙂
Wonderful place one of if not the best holiday

We did quite a bit of ice cream eating down by the harbour too 😊
Beautiful place captured beautifully Mark!
Thanks mate 😊
