Barn Charm - from Norway


A little farm that I spotted from the ferry crossing the Naeryfjord in western Norway.  Notice the huge white "marshmallow" hay bales.  These dotted farms throughout Scandinavia. (photos, September 2011)

And here's an even wider view of the farm.  On one side the mountains with waterfalls cutting down to the fjord on the other side.  Notice the boat dock.  We were told that farmers used these boats for primary transportation.


And this is a straight ahead view of the Naeryfjord from the ferry.  You can barely see the little farms to the right on the banks of the fjords.


Now if you'd like to participate in the Barn Charm meme, or just see some interesting "barnery" from many different places, just go to Bluff Area Daily .

  1. Lovely photographs - I can almost feel that wonderful fresh air, clean and sparkling. I can see why my father loved Norway so much.
