Right after the ferry to Gryllefjord today, when I started riding, my shifter stopped working. Fortunately, I managed to fix it by fiddling with the cable. I was a little bit worried that I would have to ride with a single speed until Tromsø. I will need to get this checked at Tromsø. Gryllefjord, on the other hand, is a quaint little town, that mainly subsists on tourism and fish.

Today I drank unfiltered water from a lake on top of a hill, and had an excellent and long tunnel ride. Senja island is absolutely beautiful!

Came to a commercial campsite today. I am slowly starting to not like them. I never really got the their point in general, but I mostly did appreciate their existence on this trip, it’s very convenient. Also, I have been to some excellent campsites, but most of them are always so very full, that things that I want to do at a campsite, like use a equipped kitchen, or take a warm shower, I have to queue for. That by itself isn’t necessarily a problem, but I am failing to see the point in paying just for slow conveniences.

Seems like it’s going to rain tonight.

Good Night!
