Here is a good link to the Norwegian weather service.

At Hjørundfjord the ship didn't dock, instead we got small tenders from the side of the ship to the small dock in the village of Urke.

The village is very small, but has a lovely walk up into the hills - which then gives perfect views back down to the dock, and the ship in the fjord.

The weather was perfect for our walk.

There was a small shop open for drinks.

There were empty roads and trails around the village.

Quiet and peaceful.

Happy travels!
