Stavanger, Norway to find an old friend

Well we had a great weekend with Kristen's very special old friend Henning in his home town Stavanger. Henning looked after us like queens! It was just so nice to catch up.
Henning cooked us an amazing breakfast with awesome Norweigen cheese and fresh shrimps every morning! What a sweetheart he is!







We set off on a trek to dangle our legs over the a massive cliff 604 metres above Lysefjorden famous Pulpit (prekestolen) rock. It was the most amazing feeling!
Look closely at Hen's face in this photo... He he

Nice bum! Ha ha - Hen was setting his camera up on the edge!

Henning, Kristen and Clare
Kristen and Christine, another Norweigen who had come to bendigo to study years ago came from Oslo to Stavanger for the weekend so we caught up with her too!







A big group of us partied at Hennings and then moved on to a Carribean music festival which was amazing!





Because Henning volunteered to help with the festical, one of the musicians, a Jamaican called 'Jah Bobby' made his way to Hennings! Yo Man! What a crack up









At Old Stavanger was amazing and full of gorgeous little cobble stone streets with tiny little sailors houses. One of Henning's friends lived in one and invited us in for a look!
