We serviced the van before leaving "The Gateway to North Norway" and travelled north stopping off briefly for a snack in a rest area. When we arrived in the town of Mosjoen we did a small supermarket shop before stopping for the day at the Marina. We initially parked in the posh designated motorhome/campervan spaces. Our van is seen here third from the left.

When we found out that it costs 350 NOK (about £27) to park there overnght we moved the short distance to a small free parking area just next to the paid area. Here's the view from the side door of our van. We can still see the boats through the bushes!

We went for a ride/walk along the fjordside.

There is an attractive area with lawn, benches and boardwalks nearby.

Over on the other side of the fjord there are high hills.

There's a nice beach.

I'm not sure what's the purpose of these poles offshore from the beach.

This breakwater protects the marina from rough weather.

Back at the van this young woman with a gigantic cat on a lead paid us a brief visit. I watched England 2 Norway 1 World Cup Quarter Final match on my smartphone as it was only being shown on pay TV in Norway! I think with our registration plates on view we need to keep a low profile tomorrow!

Today we travelled 60 miles (97 kilometres). We are at: N65.85477 E13.19377
