The temperatute hits 23 deg C and the conditions in the house becomes rather warm, oppressive and not comfortable. Houses here are not built for comfort in these "hot" climes ... we have lots of glass, lots of windows, they are mostly constructed to keep the heat in.
You can of course open up all the double glazed windows and with it will flow in the summer insects, summer noises and also the heat. So the only solution seems to either soak in a bathtub (swimming pools are not very common unless it's covered and heated and are very rare).
Let's head for the outdoors ... together with the rest of the country so it seems ...
This place is Johrenholmen a walking distance away from Rema 1000 in Jorpeland, that used to be distant township across the fjord which is now only 340mins by car using the newly built Ryfylke tunnel system. And it costs only NOK140 each way. Cheap considering the access to an entire landmass across the waters. Before this it was such a nuisance having to queue for a ferry and all that.
Of course everybody seems to be having the same idea to escape the heat! Johrenholmen is indeed a very nice spot ... I wonder how dark this place is at night, probably not too dark since it's so close to the township.
