Days 8-9 - That smell is not coming out !

Our Accommodation

The Harbour at 9.30 pm

Driving around some local fjords 

It was time to move on from our quaint fishing village in Sennisvik heading 1 & 1/2 hours Nth West to the even quieter fishing village of Laukvik while stocking up on supplies in Svolvear on the way ! The Wow moments continued as we turned up a still snow bound valley before finally emerging on the coastline at Laukvik. First impressions were that seagulls significantly outnumbered people, there was no bloody cafe and that the pervading smell of drying cod heads was everywhere !
Our accommodation was another basic but comfortable looking Robur . We made ourselves known to the owner quickly enough by locking ourselves in !
Like a newly washed dog Kev was keen on getting up close and personal with the thousands of drying cod heads impressed that something could possibly give a worse smell than his cycling socks !
Apparently the heads are used for the Nigerian market hopefully not as an aphrodisiac, as it was still far too cold for any bed time action !
After becoming acquainted with the sea gulls and stunning surrounding scenery we used the following day to explore the nearby fjords which would make superb flat cycling routes if it wasnt for the single figure temperatures. All in all a superb relaxing location chilling me out enough to even encourage Kev to do tonight's cooking !
