Since we didn't get to bed last night until about 3am (after checking in at midnight and getting everything laid out or hung up to dry) we had a late breakfast and got rolling at noon. I stopped at a bike shop for a much needed brake adjustment. 

We headed out in a light drizzle and very little wind (yay!). 

We had 3 tunnels to go through today. This one was 2.7 miles long. 

Since the weather was way better than last night (45 degrees, light drizzle, very little wind),  we stopped for some pictures.

The Nordkapp Tunnel was a  big, steep 4.2 mile tunnel with 10% grades. It goes under the Arctic Ocean.  It was very difficult.  

After the tunnel, we continued on to Repvag Camping.  We have a nice room with a great view! 

We ate the food we took from breakfast and what we bought at the grocery store. We actually have time this evening to relax and get to bed at a decent time.
