Januartur til Røvær

Etter uker med urolig hav, har vi hatt noen stille dager. Dermed ble turen til Røvær en behagelig opplevelse. Og selv om solen ikke setter farge på landskapet - er da denne haugesundske utpost et vakkert sted! 

English:
After weeks of storms and unpleasant travelling conditions on the sea, we have had some quiet day's. We had a pleasant trip both to and from Røvær today. And even without the sun - the countryside of this western outskirt of Haugesund  is beautiful!  With their own school, church, and grocery shop, the population ( app. 100 at the moment ) is growing. They have frequent boats to and from Haugesund, and - later this year - a brand new and fast ferry will be ready for use.

Why Røvær in the middle of the week? I have customers there!
