Writing this at 4:30pm, having enjoyed a good tour by boat to Lillesand.
The tour only started at 11:30am so we slept until 7am, had breakfast and a few quiet hours and a quick lunch before leaving for the tour.
Beautiful boat trip and Lillesand is a very nice town. Learnt a lot from the guide on how Norwegians spennd their summer break (mandatory 3 weeks over summer - 5 weeks per year total). Lots of little coastal buildings for spending summer in, beautiful cottages.
Next stop Edinburgh.
I am really going to miss Scandanavia. It just seems so perfect. Though of course it was late summer with long days and 20 degree days. And even with the issues of short visits to some towns and the Visby episode I will miss being on Wind Surf. They do need to get Wifi :) but overall its an excellent way to have a quick look at new parts of the world while in comfortable surroundings and meeting some good people.
Departing Kristansand with the sun on the back of our necks, the sound of the waves, the feel of teh wind, it really doesn't get much better.
Its ticked around to 6pm, sitting in the main bar sipping the cocktail of the day, and the band starts to play. Cheesy 80's music but thats ok. Tina just reminded me of the line dancing later. Time for another cocktail.
