Killing Time Indoors

4:06 PM

6:00 AM—some stomping around and cyclists pacing back and forth woke me up. At 9:00 AM I thought I’d go have breakfast, but the restaurant and shop were closed. So, time to kill. I turned my backpack upside down and set aside everything I hadn’t used. At 10:30 I went to the post office to get a box. Luckily there was a small shop next door with some groceries. I bought bake-off rolls and put them in the hotel oven for at least some kind of breakfast—although I managed to burn them! Packed everything into the box and back to the post office. It’s exciting again to see whether this box will arrive as well. In Norway they’re quite addicted to paperwork too.

Walking is still tough. I still can’t really roll my foot properly. So I didn’t go to the E1. Tomorrow I’ll walk or hitchhike to the E1. If that doesn’t work out, I’ll travel on to Alta.
