1999-07-27 - Memurubu - Bukkelægret - Gjendebu
From the top of Surtningssui we saw that Nautgardstind doesn't seemed so impressive and we also got a tip about Bukkelægret so the choice was easy. This hike we only had one backpack to wear, we sent the other by boat.

We started to walk at 9 AM and had no hurry at all. Even today the weather was nice. Just before the steep Bukkelægret we stopped for lunch together with our Norwegian friends M&M. We decided to prepare a four courses dinner. First dish was a Norwegian special called "sveler". It looks like small pancakes. And then we had tomato soup and finally rice and meat souce. For the dessert we cooked a strawberry cream with milk. The people who where passing by they just stirred at us. This was the best meal I have ever had in the mountains.

One hour later we climbed down the steep hillside. There were wires and chains to hold on to. It was a great view over Lake Gjende with the characteristic green color. The last boat had already left when we arrived at Gjendebu. But so what, camping at Gjendebu is also okay. In the evening we played cards with Mette and Marit. The game was called "the idiot" and we always lost. How an earth could we loose? Was it something wrong with the Swedish card of deck?
