I was excited yesterday and put my alarm at 07:00, however completely unexpectedly, I woke up at 06:30 already and could no longer sleep,
despite the bed being reasonably comfy. I beckoned Paul who was (obvioulsy) already awake, and he booted up his morning ritual program. At
07:15 we were downstairs making breakfast, boiled eggs (to perfection, if I might say!), the usual bread, salami, smoked salmon, and to mix
it up a little _Italienisk Salat_ rather than my usual _Sommarsalat_. We were in the car at 07:45 and despite a tiny obstruction along the
way in _Beitostølen_ where the local goat herd was having their yearly general assembly on the road, we managed to drive up to the
_Gjendesheim_ parkinglot by 08:30, which was great.

We put on our hiking boots and at 08:38 we were off to the races - our trip today starts at _Gjendesheim_ parkinglot, about 1.5km walk to
_Gjendesheim_, where parking is only allowed up until 2hrs. We're going to be up here all day, of course, so we got the extra proveribal
mile from the lot to the start of the trail.

The path here is gorgeous though, every now and again we're treated to a view of the lake below, in all of its blue and aquamarine hues and
tints. The Sun wants to / tries to break through to give the lake that little extra sparkle. We're just very grateful that there is no rain
(because climbing down slippery rocks != fun) and limited wind. In fact, the wind that is blowing up here helps us cool off, because we're
both sweating like pigs.
