This is Part 23 of my trip continuing the journey through Norway, I Left the campsite at Olderfjord Turistsenter, nice location and a good day room, but the toilet / shower facilities were very limited. More reindeer along the way and a really long wait at some road works. While waiting the biker to my left, attempted to get off his bike, but in doing so somehow managed to drop his bike which leant over on me while he ended up on the ground the other side of my bike. No damage to anybody or anything but a very odd experience.
Crossed the border into Finland, some lovely scenery along the way and ended up at a small / basic campsite by a river, this was the first time I'd truly encountered mosquitos which were a real nuisance while erecting the tent. The campsite had a restaurant which did really good food.

The whole journey took me through the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and into Norway right the way up to Nordkapp, the furthest point you can travel by motorcycle or car in mainland Europe and then back through Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Germany, Belgium and France over a 7 week period late May - mid July 2023
I am back in the UK now, but please do add your comments and I'll get back to you.

Hoping you can "Like" the video, as this does help the channel.

All my best wishes, thanks again for watching
