Stavanger, Norway

The weather in some of our ports has been fairly ordinary but today was a perfect day in Stavanger. A chilly start but warm in the sun and a clear sky until mid afternoon. Perfect for walking around in shirt sleeves.

Of course I found a local manhole cover.

The old town is beautifully maintained.

I found several examples of interesting street art.

A popular selfie zone? Of course I had to because it was there!

I think this says” The petrified man reigns freely in your country, no narrow-mindedness shuts out the boldest and most glorious” but happy for a Danish or Norwegian linguist to improve the translation.

I found this young (I think) bird sitting on the ground. Another was in a doorway close by. I think that hey are juvenile European Herring Gulls.

Sailors monument at the end of the harbour, high on a pole.

MS Sandnes. Previously a night ferry in the 1950-60s and now used for functions such as weddings or charters.
