Mesmerizing discoveries on a desolate Arctic road trip 🇳🇴 BÅTSFJORD/BERLEVÅG

[@leifolsen3230]

The note on the wall reads: Båtsfjord Church is a working church from 1971. The architect for the church was Hans Magnus. It was originally built in gray concrete with a flat roof, but after refurbishment it has been given a brick facade and pitched roof. The inventory is from the year of construction or later. Jardar Lunde has executed the 85 m² stained glass window called "The sevenfold grace - God's glorious majesty". The building is made of concrete and has 300 seats.

I live in Båtsfjord, and I shared your pleasant film from Båtsfjord and Berlevåg.

[@T1DWanderer]

Thanks Pål! You live in a really cool place

Many, many years ago, I was driving a truck and was in Båtsfjord picking up fish. Got there on a summer evening and it was actually midnight sun and very warm, which is unusual in these arctic latitudes. Headed out, first the hotel. There it was full of life in the pub and after that I wandered around a bit. There was a party on all the terraces and I was invited. Proper Brazil festival vibes everywhere, because it was THAT evening and night it was summer that year. In the torn-off cliffs towards Berlevåg, Hamningberg and other places, there are some caves. Partisans lay in these and scouted for German ships and reported on them, so they could be bombed or torpedoed. But can you imagine lying in a cave for six, maybe twelve months, without being able to light a fire to warm yourself, because then you might be discovered. Almost no food, nothing, only to be discovered and shot.

What a crazy land and story

[@joahanse]

I have seen all the videos from Norway, and looking forward to the next one.

[@T1DWanderer]

Thanks, still more to come from far northeastern Norway

I am following your journey in Norway on Google Earth, there is even "streetview" of these roads you are driving, but I am totally enjoying your videos and commentaries as I can relate to your exuberance over the stark beauty no matter what the weather! I plan to return to Tromsø this Summer and one of the plans is to take the Hurtigruten ferry to Kirkenes then fly back to Tromsø on Widerøe only because it makes stops in Båtsfjord and Berlevåg; I figure it will give me that "birds´eye view" of hop and skipping over that stark terrain to land in between the mountains and a fjord! Excited that you took the time to check out Båtffjord Lufthaven. Carry on, dance as if no one is watching! I´m enjoying the ride! Thanks again for sharing.

[@T1DWanderer]

Thanks for watching. You've got some great ideas for your trip I see!

[@PrimeTimeTravelers]

These Norway videos just are all so awesome. We will gladly finish off this series but we also can't wait to see where you go next!

[@T1DWanderer]

Glad you like them! Off to the Blue Ridge Parkway next...

[@Barley150]

Wow --What a treat, Jeremy -- to see you on Saturday! I intend to look at this trip in August, the cruelest month here in Sacramento CA.

[@T1DWanderer]

Good idea - I think I'll watch this series again myself when the heat and humidity show up here...

[@leoalextk]

5:00 is where every kids is going to smoke xD

[@T1DWanderer]

That explains it!

[@normfaner9894]

Nice video of northern Norway. What month was this?

[@T1DWanderer]

Thanks. This was in October, I believe.
