May 2012 Norway Part 2 of 3


Tvindefossen waterfalls 


Tyssedal Hydro Museum

Working my way through Norway

Whaling statue and fountain
In Tyssedal we were given a tour of an old 100 MW hydro electric plant. The replacement plant was built inside the mountain. In Dalen, the owner of the B&B told us where we could go to see moose. We did see three moose but it was too dark for pictures.  We continued east to the historic town of Larvik, Thor Heyerdahl’s home town. In Molen, we found large mounds of rocks which were the graves of Vikings. We visited the Whaling Museum in Sandefjord.
