     Data on this one: no idea. This wasn’t planned 🤷♂️

     Not the most pleasant coach trip

     Annoying group of retired Australians on board, one of whom is obviously ill and is coughing and sneezing incessantly

     My 😷 is on tight

     It's time to head south again, but this time on the Norwegian side - but between Narvik and Bodø or Fauske there is no train. So it's onto two buses first of all and then - if there are enough locomotives running! - a train south via Trondheim to Oslo. Testing the Norwegian airline style "beds".
