Last day in Harøysund

We were planning on leave Harøysund today and only had what we hoped was a quick job with changing the alternator left to do. Unfortunately it had us stumped and with assistance from Mitchell's powersystems as well as the hard work of the boys in the boat yard we had a fully functioning engine. The time it had taken meant we would be leaving in the evening and have a night passage ahead of us so when Svein Kåre offered to take us to Molde for the jazz festival we jumped at the chance and chose a morning departure instead.
Svein Kåre drove us to Molde through some stunning scenery and it was nice to see a bit of inland Norway. The mountains and trees were worlds away from our lives in Papay. We met up with Terje who kindly invited us for a drink on his yacht which he had left the boat yard in Harøysund just days before. Wishing us well he left with his girlfriend for a concert and we took a look around town. Svein Kåre drove us to an amazing viewpoint on our way home. The view was unbelievable and no picture could do it justice.
Saying our good bye was difficult and arriving in harøysund days before we had no idea that it would become a place so fondly held by us and with true friends we would be sad to say goodbye to.
