Trondheim to Molde - Norway (Day 2)
To experience the drive along the Atlantic Ocean Road, we
took a detour to go through Kristiansund, then onto the Atlantic Ocean Road and
towards Molde.
On the way, literally in the middle of nowhere, there was a food truck serving amazing Thai Food!
When we reached the entrance of the Atlantic Road, we had to pay a toll and the toll was almost $17USD! It is about 5 miles that goes through several islands via bridges that helps us hop through the different tiny islands.
One of the bridges, Storseisundet Bridge is a very prominent because
of its cantilever design. The design of the bridge is apparently very crucial
as it has to withstand some wild winds from the Atlantic Ocean.
We continued our drive to Molde. The hotel we chose was the
Scandic Seilet Hotel that had an interesting shape to cater for an ocean view
from pretty much every room in every floor! From the room, we got an
unobstructed view of the fjord and the sight of the ferries traveling back and
forth provided for a breathless view.
Only thing that would have made it better
would have been a bit less cloud cover. By the time we came out for dinner, it
was late in the evening and overcast. We just took a stroll into the town
wherein most places seem to have closed except for a few restaurants. We had a
light dinner and called it a day.
Next day, the breakfast
at the Scandic Seilet was so amazing with lots of varieties and the place was
pretty crowded for obvious reason!
