So interesting to learn that those peaks will have snow on them all year round - so beautiful! I also was impressed by the bridges in the video.

@welltravelledlife 10 ай бұрын

Having the protection it does, and the foehn wind, Molde itself is really temperate, but its northern latitude means that the surrounding area and the mountains particularly definitely has LOTS of winter. We kind of wish we could be on the Atlantic Road during a massive storms when the waves are crashing up over the big arced bridge. Ok, to be truthful, that's just me (Jennifer) that wants that.

Norway is so beautiful Abundantly blessed with natural and artificial scenery

@welltravelledlife 10 ай бұрын

We kind of feel like the scenery is totally authentic. Not exactly sure what you consider the artificial scenery to be.

Absolutely stunning. What an awesome drive. Those bridges are indeed a architectural wonder. Thank you for all that information too, such an interesting history. Quite amazing having all those islands connected the way they are- and the magnificent mountain ranges as backdrop. Just stunning. Thanks for sharing your epic journey. 👌🩷🇳🇱🙋‍♀🇳🇿

Head to Norway in the summer. Jenn went wild swimming in those freezing fjord waters. Hmm, that probably won’t convince your wife. But we haven’t found another country with such accessible mountains, waterfalls, views, and clean, green living.

Jenn says she's dying to be on the Atlantic Road when the waves are big enough to go over the bridge. I think if that were really the case, she'd change her mind!

@@welltravelledlife I totally agree with you she will definitely change her mind once she sees the big waves over the bridge. Say Hi to Jenn 👋 for me 😊

We prefer small towns. Skjolden was our fav. We’re thinking about heading back there for a long stay.

We have decided we could live in the small (but incredibly beautiful!) town of Skjolden. If we were to pick a city, it would probably be Alesund. Where were you living?

Thanks for this. Our cruise changed port stops from Alesund to Molde. We are considering renting a car for the day and driving to Trollstigen to be able to take in all the sites we were originally hoping to see when we booked the cruise.

@debragehris1591 10 ай бұрын

We were there on a cruise the end of August, and rented a car (picked up the car at the airport - easy and quick). We looked at the places the cruise excursions were going to and decided to head to Bud and most of the places in this video. We had considered going south to Trollstigen and other places tot he south but saw it would involve 2 ferry rides and I was concerned if we missed a ferry. Lots of beautiful places to the north of Molde. Enjoy your day no matter which direction you go.

@welltravelledlife 10 ай бұрын

The Trollstigen is awesome, but it's much more difficult to get to from Molde than it is from Alesund. From Molde, you're going to have to take a ferry and there's a longer drive. And traffic on the Trollstigen can be pretty fierce. Molde is better situated for Bud, and the Atlantic Road. The Atlantic Road is definitely worth seeing, Bud is charming, and if you're looking for a longer drive, you can do the loop that goes to Kristiansund (and includes a 3 mile underwater tunnel) and comes back around to Molde the back way. One day, head back to Alesund. We love that city a lot. We spent quite a bit of time there and have two different videos (one for the Trollstigen and the loop around the back, and one for other areas outside of the city (Giske, Godoya, and another German fortification). kzbin.info/www/bejne/enPMqoJor7R1o5Ysi=MUzB0RM30qm8w3ZL

Hey guys, just found your channel, great tour! Norway is fascinating! I didn't know anything about Molde apart from they had a football team 😂 nice views of the mountains all around and great roads to drive on. I haven't made it to Norway yet but I will one day! Interesting how the buildings have grass growing on the roofs! Good luck with the channel, you're almost at that elusive 1k!

@welltravelledlife 10 ай бұрын

You'll love Norway - it's right up your hiking alley! The earthen roofs provide insulation and are a really traditional building style that we saw all over the country. And we think it's funny that you know the football team because the arena is the biggest thing in town and if you google Molde highlights, it's all football scores and game clips! Thanks for stopping by. That first 1k is a killer!
