Crazy photo I took this morning on our way to breakfast....almost too much reflection...and there was no sunshine....but the water was so still...


Our cabin which we are really enjoying...


The best breakfast so far....yoghurt, granola, oats, raisins, prunes, fresh fruit....etc...as well as smoked salmon, humus, beetroot, pickles, cheese, veggies, cottage cheese and lots more...I try everything.


fried eggs, sausages and scrambled eggs...


Terrific coffee and sweeties...(we don't have much lunch)


Our cabin, the first and others on the waterfront...


After breakfast we spent some time looking around Reine...it wasn't cold but a little drizzle..


The mountains are everywhere....


The construction of wooden poles on the left is where the fishermen hang their fish to dry in the summer months...it is then known as stockfish. They have been drying fish here for centuries and it is still being exported to other countries as well as being eaten by Norwegians.



Quite common these flowers, gorgeous...


Reine from a distance...


As we were walking past a young couple, they pointed out the Orca whales in the ocean...we watched them for a while and also chatted to the friendly Norwegian couple. The seagulls were flying all around the whales. The ocean was like glass and a beautiful silver colour.


We visited some of the towns near by ...Sorvagen...


It is amazing how much water runs through the towns....


We enjoyed a walk along the coast near the town of Moskenes...


...see the people....



Moskenes town...


Seagull nests in some of the older buildings...




The town of Hamnoy....
