Bergen: Just a short crossing in the port of Norway ...
Leirvik hamn, sommaren 1973 – MS Sunnhordland, Ferjer og Hydrofoiler
Liv på Vikjo ein sommardag i 1973.
Først kjem HSD båtane MS Sunnhordland og MF Sveio seglande inn Vikaflè.
Førstnemnde legg naturleg nok til ved Sunnhordlandskaien (eller Hauglandskaien), medan «Sveio» finn fram til ferjekaien.
Medan «Sunnhordland» blir fortøyd, ser me eit glimt av HSD hydrofoilen «Teisten» ved Nattrutekaien.
Passasjerer og gods kjem i land frå «Sunnhordland», og me ser igjen «Sveio» til kai, saman med HSD travaren MF Folgefonn. På kaien står og fleire HSD bussar, i sin karakteristiske raudfarge.
Så snart skipet er ferdig lossa, legg «Sunnhordland» frå kai, og passerer MF Bjørnefjord ved ferjekaien, medan ho bakker ut.
Dette var siste sommaren «Sunnhordland» var i rute for HSD.
MS Sunnhordland vart bygd ved Pullman Standard Car Mfg i Chicago USA og levert som USS «PCE 830» i 1943. Overført til Royal Navy same år og omdøypt «HMS Kilchrenan».
Etter andre verdskrig vart «Kilchrenan» ein av 6 britiske ubåtjagarar som vart kjøpt av norske rederi for ombygging til passasjertransport. Seld til HSD i 1947 for ombygging ved Bergens Mekaniske Verksted, og seinare levert som MS Sunnhordland i juni 1949.
Gjekk i mange år i rute mellom Bergen og Sunnhordland, som eitt av landets største lokalruteskip.
Seld til Finland i 1974 om omdøypt «Kristina Brahe». Opererte i cruisetrafikk i Finland og vart her ombygd. Mellom anna vart det laga til lugarar på bildekket, og ein restaurant akter.
I 2016 vart båten kjøpt opp av privatpersoner på Stord, og fekk tilbake sitt gamle namn. «Sunnhordland» vart mala om i HSD fargar, og kom «heim» til Stord i november same år. Sidan den tid har veteranskipet vert nytta til mange ulike føremål, mellom anna som transportskip for TV-serien 71 grader nord.
MF Sveio vart bygd ved Ankerløkken Verft i Florø og levert til HSD 19. juni 1967.
Gjekk i rute for HSD fram til 1995, då den vart seld til Finland og omdøypt «Aspö».
Seld videre i 2018 og ombygd til hotellskip. Framleis i drift i Finland som Hotellskipet «Isosaari».
HB Teisten vart bygd i Messina, Italia, og levert til HSD i april 1970.
Gjekk fleire år i rute mellom Bergen og Leirvik, før den vart seld som HSDs siste hydrofoil i 1988 til Simen Møkster. Fekk då namnet «Strilprins», eit namn som vart endra til ”Hinnavåg” berre ein månad seinare.
På tampen av 1988 vart båten seld vidare til Italia og omdøypt «Flecho Del Estrcho». Seld vidare til eit anna Italiensk rederi året etter og fekk då namnet «Freccia Di Casamicciola».
I fart i Italia fram til 1998, då den vart seld for hogging.
MF Folgefonn vart bygd ved Bergen Mekaniske Verksted og levert til HSD 2. juni 1938.
Skipet vart då landets største og mest moderne bilferje, og satt inn i ruta Ålvik-Kinsarvik i Hardanger. På tidleg 1950-talet i rute Brimnes-Ulvik, før den vart satt i fart i Sunnhordland i juni 1957. Ferja vart ellers nytta på fleire ulike HSD samband.
I 1979 vart «Folgefonn» tatt ut av drift og seld til Dixon Travel i Liverpool, England. Ferja skulle då ombygges til turistbåt, noko det ikkje vart noko av.
I staden vart ferja frå 1980 nytta som klubbhus av Erith Yacht Club i Kent, England.
Mai 2010 vart ferja kjøpt av Hardanger Fartøyvernsenter, og slept til Dåfjorden Slipp same året. Slept vidare til Norheimsund i 2011 for bruk som museumsskip og freda av riksantikvaren.
I 2020 låg ferja i Bredalsholmen Dokk og Fartøyvernsenter i Kristiansand for skrogarbeid.
Det er venta at restaureringa vil vere ferdig i 2026.
MF Bjørnefjord vart bygd ved Brødrene Lothe A/S i Haugesund, og levert til HSD i mai 1962.
«Bjørnefjord» vart den første ferja i rute på den nye strekninga mellom Sandvikvåg og Halhjem i 1963. Seinare gjekk ferja på ulike ruter for HSD, fram til juni 1988, då den vart seld til Polarlaks A/S og omdøypt «Aunfjell». Her skulle ferja fungere som forstasjon for eit oppdrettsanlegg i fleire år.
I 1992 skifta ferja namn tilbake til «Bjørnefjord», noko som varte til 2010 då ferja vart kjøpt opp med intensjon om å føre ho tilbake til Sunnhordland. Nytt namn, «Gamle Bjørnefjord».
Ferja vart så frakta til Odda, der stiftelsen MF Bjørnefjord ville restaurere båten.
Dessverre var ferja i så dårleg stand at restaureringa vart skrinlagde og «Gamle Bjørnefjord» gjekk i opplag i Sagvåg. Etter at motorane og teknisk utstyr var henta ut, vart ferja hogd ved demoleringsområdet på Eldøyane ved Kværner Stord i 2016.

Halden, Norway - City Tour & Drone, 4k
The city of Halden is nestled among the hills on the banks of the fjord. In the past, Halden had an important defensive function. The old fortress Fredriksten (Fredriksten festning) rises above the city.
The city is very popular with tourists. Especially in the summer, when there are various festivals and concerts. And we walked around Halden in October and it seems to us that at this time of the year, all the cities are especially expressive and bright thanks to the autumn foliage!
We started the walk from the Rødsberget hill, a total climb of about 34 meters along comfortable paths. From the top, there is a wonderful view of the city, the fortress, the fjord, and the stadium.
Next we visited Rød Manor (Rød Herregård). This estate is over 300 years old and there is a cozy park and gardens next to it. We will definitely come back here in the summer when the roses are in bloom.
And of course, now it was time to enjoy the city center and we started our walk from the harbor. Walking here is a pleasure, the fresh sea breeze carries delicious smells from restaurants. And colorful shops attract the eye.
The city has an elegant pedestrian bridge, it was opened for the new year in 2000, as a gift to the townspeople. We walked along it, crossing the Tista River when we walked to the central park along the pedestrian street Storgata.
Busterudparken was built over a hundred years ago. In the Park, there is an openwork gazebo in which Christmas songs are sung. And a skating rink is being poured nearby.
On the corner of the park is the Church of St. Peter (St. Peter Kirke). It was built in 1877 in the Neo-Gothic style of unpolished red brick.
Walking around the city you think about its history. Swedish forces tried unsuccessfully to invade the city six times, but Halden was never captured by force by any invading army. Although it was occupied by the Nazis during World War II.
By the way, an interesting fact is that Halden is the only city mentioned in the national anthem of Norway.
Well, now is the time to climb the hill to the Frederiksten fortress, which you have already seen in the frame many times during the walk. The beginning of construction of the fortress dates back to the middle of the 17th century - during the wars between Sweden, Denmark, and Norway. For a long time, it served as a defensive structure, as it is located on the border with Sweden. By the way, it is in the middle of Iddefjord (Iddefjorden) that the border between Sweden and Norway passes. And during the siege of the Frederiksten fortress in 1718, the Swedish king Charles XII was killed.
Well, since we are talking about the border, it's time to show you the old and new Svinesund bridges (Svinesundsbroene). This is one of the most picturesque borders of Norway with Sweden across the fjord. We love walking here.
In this video, we invite you to spend a day with us in Halden and walk around the city. And finally, enjoy the bright colors of the sunset on the mighty walls of the fortress!
We really hope you enjoy the video! We tried our best! Feel free to ask your questions and write wishes in the comments, we are always pleased to read them!;)
Thank you for traveling with us!

Marinefartøy på Leirvik, 6. mai 1992
I perioden 4 - 12 mai 1992 deltok eit 30-tals norske, danske og tyske marinefartøy i ein større NATO øvelse mellom Bergen og Stavanger, kalla Bold Game.
Onsdag 6. mai var fleire av desse til kai ved Nattrutekaien på Vikjo, noko som førte til at det vart noko trongt om plassen for HSD sine snøggbåtar som MS Tjelden.
Etter øvinga på vestlandet, gjekk turen vidare til Skagerak, Kattegat og Østersjøen, for fase to av øvinga.
Blant MTB'ane som låg til kai denne dagen var Gribb og Lom.
Ein får og eit kort glimt av HSD ferja MF Kvam, i rute Leirvik-Ranavik-Sunde.

14-NORDKAPP NORWAY8 (Leirvik)
Día 14 Noruega. (23-06-2018)
Hoy he llegado a Leirvik. Esta mañana me levanté a las 6:00 pero llovía, y decidí volver a dormir un rato mas. Por allá a las 9 paró y empecé a recoger los trastos que con el vientecillo ya se habían secado. Empecé a ascender por la montaña y las curvas cada vez animaban mas y mas. Llegué arriba y estaba lleno de nieve, y lagos que se formaban por el deshielo. El frío el de siempre , al menos ya no llovía tanto, solo chispeaba. Si a fuera la temperatura estaba a unos 9-10 grados cuando entrabas en un túnel bajaba a 7-8 grados y ay caramba, carambita , carambola si lo sentía . Además hoy pillé un túnel sin luces... que eso parecía el túnel de la bruja, de la feria, y otro que había un polvo que ni se podía ni ver bien ni respirar. Seguí un poco mas con la ruta y al alejarme del freskibiris de lo alto de las montañas decidí parar y comer los bocatas de salchichas de soja que me pillé ayer y agradecer a Dios por haberme cuidado en todas esas situaciones que aparecía algún animal en la carretera, o que me cortaba el paso algún otro animal al volante en algún cruce y por haberme ayudado a resistir sin resfriarme después de todos esos días fríos y lluviosos. Seguí descendiendo, rodeando fjords de un lado a otro que estaban separados por un grande lago en medio. Veía toda esa naturaleza verde, y tenia deja vu's con los paisajes que vi en Suiza el año pasado. Pero no solo los paisajes, los olores a caca de vaca.... osea abono natural... moscas que parecían proyectiles en mi casco, y cuando se estampaban te dejaban una marca como si hubiera jugado paintball y me hubieran disparado. Mientras conducía y veía como esta gente trabajaba en la agricultura, recogiendo fresas, cortando la hierba para recogerla en graneros para los animales, abonando los campos, sentí un sentimiento de nostalgia hacia la infancia, de cuando vivía en el pueblo y tenia que ayudar a los abuelos con las tareas del campo (aunque la mayoría de las veces me escaqueaba pero bueno eso ya es otra historia... jejeje). Y los veía y parecían felices con esta vida tranquila , sin los líos de la gran ciudad, sin horarios de oficina y sin tantos alimentos envasados.
Luego pillé 2 ferrys más , y ya me sentía como todo un profesional viajando en ferry. Al llegar a Bergen fui a un camping y por una Hytte me querían sablar unos 65€, que claramente no pagué y decidí seguir adelante. Iba pasando de isla a isla y a los campings que iba , las recepciones estaban cerradas. Ya lo tenia pensado, si no encuentro donde dormir hay dos posibilidades: seguir hasta Kristiansand o hacer acampada al aire libre. Pero finalmente llegué a un camping donde vinieron unos moteros polacos y me dijeron que la recepción estaba cerrada pero que sabían donde estaba el dueño del camping y que lo llamarían. Buaaaa me salvaron esta noche. Llega el dueño y me pregunta de donde vengo y le contesto que de España, y otro que me empieza a hablar español. Yo estaba pensando , que pasa aquí ? estos dan español como segundo idioma en la escuela o que?. El señor muy amable me ofreció una Hytte por 37€ , y me dio también 20nok para la ducha y hoy tocaba si o si ducha, ya que ayer me quedé sin monedas de 10nok y no pude ducharme. Lo bueno que como hace frío y no sudas, pos no apestaba tanto...jejeje. También me invitó a la fogata que se iba a hacer esta noche con todos los del camping, que es algo típico aquí como en España son las fogatas de San Juan en la playa. Mientras escribo el resumen del día me he dado cuenta que a fuera ya es de noche aunque aun se ven las cosas fuera. No es una noche tan oscura como en España(la última foto se puede ver como es a las 12 de la noche por aquí). Pero es raro volver a verlo. Ya me había acostumbrado a dormir de día... me lo tomaba como una siesta y apañao.
