Well I think my car is ready for it's longest trip, from England though Holland, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Norway. Taking in all the four capitals of 🇩🇰, 🇸🇪, 🇫🇮 and 🇳🇴. Travelling up to the Artic circle and beyond to the most northern point of Europe, North Cape.
I haven't booked a return ferry because I'm not sure on the duration of the trip. It will probably be in the region of 6,000 miles? I will be checking in with Santa in Lapland so if anyone wants me to put a good word in, just let me know. :) 🎅

Blimey, how many weeks do You think You'll be away...?

We did the Norway fjord's cruise back in May 2018, I noted that it looked a great region for a epic Road Trip - Just a shame that the ferry direct from England to Norway no longer runs... (Or P&O allow a bit of car freight...!)

No, I got back a while ago but forgot to post a few more photos, especially of some snow so that everyone didn't think the Sun always shines above the circle. :LOL:
We were out for just over 4 weeks.
