We left 'Musk Ox Country' and drove towards Vaga. We took a few side tracks to look at the mountains and the views. In Vaga we visited their lovely stave church. They are having the roof repaired and there were stacks of new wooden tiles ready to go on. Years of preservative has stained the wood, so it almost olooks burnt and the 'door furniture' must date from the eighteenth century, along with the church.
We can't go too long without a coffee or some other refreshment, and found several places to choose from in the village. We eventually had coffee and delicious cakes at Verstaahjornet Kafe from where we bought mandelstang for later! What a beautiful morning, sitting in the sun.
Back to the car and a little more driving brought us to Glitterheim with its wonderful vistas, cosy hytte and tasty waffles. Coming away from the hytta we found some reindeer, including one quite unusual white one.
Then we drove down on to Lom, where we are staying for the next few days, at Fossheim Hotel. We had plenty of time to walk through the town to the National Fjellmuseum, where we discovered all about the fauna, flora and geology around us.
