My father-in-law, my wife, and I decided to take a trip to the North Cape. We have planned about 3 weeks for this. I plan to post pictures and impressions from time to time. I also have the banner from our twenty-first Bitcoin meetup in Hamburg. I will explore the acceptance of Bitcoin on the go. I'm not very good at writing text, so I'll just post short notes under the pictures. The Trip starts tomorrow afternoon. Friday 30. May

Schöne Reise euch! Passt auf die Elche auf. Die stehen gern mal auf der Straße rum und sind sehr groß. 😄
We traveled from Germany to Denmark and had a funny situation yesterday evening during the campsite check-in. Three people from a time before smartphones had to prove their smartphone skills. There was no staff on-site, and access to the campsite, including booking, was only possible online via a website. As the most tech-savvy of the group, I used my smartphone with GrapheneOS and scanned the QR code to reach the booking site. However, I realized I had no internet connection. So, I used my wife’s smartphone, which had an online connection, and set up a Bluetooth connection. This allowed me to access the website I had scanned with my phone’s QR scanner, despite having no direct mobile internet. I navigated the menu to select the campsite and its options, entering my wife’s phone number to receive an SMS with the access code after payment. For the payment, my father-in-law offered his bank details. During the payment process, he had to use his banking app on his smartphone with internet access to authorize the transaction with a temporary password. In the end, it all worked out: we completed the payment, received the access code via SMS, opened the campsite gate, and enjoyed a great stay at the campsite.
A Trip from Hamburg Germany to North Cape Norway
After realizing it’s better to use my own mobile internet on my smartphone instead of sharing my wife’s via Bluetooth, I decided to follow a friend’s advice and try eSIM. I made this decision when we briefly stopped at a shopping mall to buy some missing items. There, I used the free Wi-Fi to easily set up an eSIM on my smartphone and purchase one via #Lightning.
I used my friend’s website https://ereignishorizont.xyz/esim/ and the link provided there, https://lnvpn.net/esim, to buy my eSIM.
Many thanks to everyone who made this possible.

The goal for today is to visit the filming location of the television series "Michel von Lönneberga" and then head to a nearby campsite for the night.
Stop on campsite
Yesterday, the following happened: We went to a campsite without staff where, after a successful online booking, you can open a key safe to get an NFC card, which is used to open the campsite gate and later access the sanitary facilities. The booking of the campsite worked fine, and by the way, many campsites no longer have staffed receptions. However, during the booking, I forgot that I was using an eSIM for mobile internet. The booking process asked for a phone number, and it turned out this number was needed to receive the PIN code for the key safe. As usual, I had provided my regular mobile phone number.
Result: I had paid but couldn’t access the campsite—what a mess. There was no other way to get in.
A friendly fellow camper then used his NFC card to give us access to the campsite.
Once on the campsite, we had access to electricity but not to the sanitary facilities.
What does this tell us? If you don’t follow the rules, you’re left out. In this case, I made a mistake. Welcome to the brave new digital world.
Yesterday we reach the #Polar Circle.
And we find a campsite with sauna, and we use it 😍
It could happen we reach the North Cape today but it must'nt
I can only recommend https://lnvpn.net/esim to you. I just easily changed the entire data package with the new eSIM while driving.
I made a wifi connection using my wife's smartphone and installed a new eSIM. Total easy and it works fine 😍
I'm totally satisfied with GraphenOS on my Pixel 8a and eSIM from lnvpn.net/esim. I use everything for navigation, except Google. Podcast from Antennapod. The 80s are on the radio. And, I can do without WhatsApp. If everything goes well, we will be at the North Cape tomorrow after 5 nights at campsites.

You're in Lapland when reindeer cross your path
We are stay for one night at the North Cape and next in Alta, we are now on way home. 
I made a barbecue with reindeer, in my taste it's like beef and a verry little flower of liver
We are current on the way from Alta to Tromso in Norway

Traditional stockfish production continues in Norway.
We have now left the Lofoten and taken the ferry from Mosken to Bodo. Today we found a campsite on the coast and at the same time at the Arctic Circle and we are staying overnight here.
Our next destination is Trondheim.
