    Having traveled thru Norway by car and by bike, there is no natural obstacle that Norwegian civil engineers cannot overcome. The road/bridge/tunnel system is amazing.

    I'm a Canadian living in Sweden. We have overland through Sweden and Norway extensively in our Land Rover over the years visiting many of the sites that you have shown in this excellent series. One thing that we have learned is that you sinply don't have enough time to see everything espicially if your following a strict schedule. With that said, we are heading back to Norway this summer for several weeks and will be visiting one of the spots that you guys shared with us in this episode. Safe travels and looking forward to the next episode.

    if anyone is wondering why in Canada mac and cheese is called kraft dinner, it's because there isn't enough (any?) dairy product in it to call it cheese. Same with the "american cheese". No cheese in it so those are called kraft singles. Fun series. :)

    So glad to see you guys enjoy Scandinavia. I'm also glad you visited some places that we have been to. Säskarö, my first real sand driving experience in Sweden. The Danish bakery by the windmill was a special place that me and my wife discovered on our bicykle tour around Denmark. The cakes were so good my wife teard up. I look forward to Iceland episodes as that is a goal of ours in the future.

    Even though I'm a Danish dude living in Sweden I have to give Norway the gold on scenic routes. We have some nice places in Sweden too but the drive there is mostly through boring forests or highways. You missed out on the "wilderness road" and Flatruet though while traveling from Norway to Finland. Further south there's some awesome beaches like Sandhammaren or Mellbystrand and some historic places to visit like Sala silver mine.

Here is some geography help for you: If you compare with the US (including Alaska) then still Europe is larger ....and if you look specific on the lower 48 ....than Europe is much larger..... There are no distance ....whatever direction....that can match distances in Europe.....
      Didn't you hear what was said in the video that they had been driving a distance ....where the majority was in Scandinavia..... that was equal to crossing the US .....twice.....
      Scandinavia + Finland is much bigger area than France ....so there are plenty of wilderness....but we don't allow the nature to be destroyed by off-road driving ....hence it is illegal to do that kind of stuff.

      These last videos has been from Scandinavia. There are no arid deserts like Arizona or Utah. Be also aware of the geo location of Scandinavia ....which is equally far north as northern part of Alaska. The nature in the Arctic is very vulnerable so off roading would be damaging to nature ....hence it is illegal to do that kind of stuff. So stay on the road. Also Iceland gives no free card to do whatever, but has clear restrictions on where you can drive....and that is only on dedicated routes....
