Sweden to Norway

After a last and exquisite camp site in Sweden we crossed over the border toll bridge at Svinesund into Norway, at this stage with no maps. Hopefully we would come across the national cycle route sign.... which we did!
 Stopping at a huge shopping complex in Sarspborg we located maps to take us to Kristiansand. On route we have passed through the fortified town of Fredrickstad, crossed the ferry from Moss to Horten and island hopped to Sandefjord on some cute wee ferries. Weather has been mixed, evidently Norway rains a lot! Look out for our next post, it could well mention  "hills" !
