This wasn’t what the forecast had called for so I decided to wait out the squall. In the mean time, I was putting on waterproof pants and hiking boots inside the car (not a lot of room mind you).

I then pulled out the rain poncho so I could at least pay the parking, which was a whopping 300 NOK (that was like paying $35 USD or something).

One Norwegian guy was making sure everyone that pulled into the car park was paying to park as well as having proper rain gear, even in the heavy rain.

Once I did the deed and put the ticket on the dash for display at 9:30am, I was then waiting out the rain after using the toilet.

As I was doing so, the same guy that was reminding everyone about the parking situation and gear preparation went over and talked to me.

He started off by asking me sarcastically, “So how’s the weather, eh?”…
