Dønna

We headed south from Støtt towards Våganholmen which we had heard was the cheapest priced fuel in Norway. The diesel certainly was cheap at under a pound a litre. Unfortunately the petrol seemed to be the standard price of around £1.60 a litre. Filling up 14 times as the pump had an automatic cut off for credit cards we grabbed a few bits at the shop and left heading further south.
The seas were calm the skies were cloudy and we made good speed down the coast. Our first trip south again we decided to have a shorter travelling day. We had found an anchorage in the Norway pilot book that sounded nice and while heading to it we decided to look at another. We anchored at Vågsvågen in Dønna, an island similar in size to some of the larger islands in orkney. Following a rough guide from Google maps we headed in search of the island shop. A nice but long walk later and we found a spar shop and got a few bits. The thought of the long walk back with heavy bags didn't particularly appeal and having been passed by a bus on the way in we went to find out bus times and stops. Again feeling incredibly guilty for our complete lack of Norwegian language we approached someone asking if they spoke English, they did perfectly and exceptionally kindly offered us a lift back to våg. Massively grateful we arrived back at the boat and made some nachos. We spent the evening exploring the nearby shipwreck and appreciating the scenery. Again,  what a lovely welcoming place.
