Slept late this morning, didn't get out of the house to walk to the shops until about twelve. Decided to make meggie's plum cake [1]. But I had no plums so I had to go shopping. But there were no plums to be had in the supermarket I went to so I decided to make it with apples instead which I already have.
It was a glorious day, more like early spring than late autumn or early winter. But of course the day is quite short with the solstice only just ovr three weeks away.
When I got back from the shops I put the shopping away and had some lunch. I was rather put out when I collected the ingredients together and found that I had no milk. So I had to go out again, it had got a little chillier so I put on a nice knitted jacket that is lined with fake fur, very cosy. By then it was a little before 17:00 and completely dark so I decided to take some night time pictures
Here's some stained glass in the church, behind the altar I suppose.
The pylons that hold the high voltage (300 kV) transmission cables above the fjord are lit up at night. The western pylon is red and the eastern one green
On a whim I took a picture of part of the village shopping centre to show it lit up
And as I was walking toward the ferry terminal about a minute later i saw the Leo Spirit heading up the fjord
It's a pity I didn't get there a couple of minutes earlier because then i would have been able to take some pictures showing how narrow the sound is.
And here she is after safely passing out of the sound into the inner fjord
Then I turned toward the ferry terminal to head home.
