The fog came early this year. On the second of September the valley behind the town filled up overnight, and it stayed that way for almost two weeks. I walked up eleven mornings in a row.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to see the valley yourself, the road starts behind the school in Ravnsund. Go before eight, and bring a flask.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
