The EPIC final instalment of our Norway trip. Some bright spark made the suggestion that we just do the last hop in one go, skipping Denmark. There were strong winds forecast for Sunday, which would have most likely stuck us in whichever port we stopped at for several days. On checking, there was a weather window just big enough to sail straight North from Borkum to Kristiansand, getting in with about 12 hours to spare before things turned a bit nasty. So we went for it!
