Day 1: Edinburgh to Dønna
Flights: Leave Edinburgh 9.35 Arrive Bergen 12.25 Leave Bergen 14.05 Arrive Trondheim 15.05 Leave Trondheim 15.30 Arrive Sandnessjoen 16.48
Bus:
(Problem caused by a bus leaving 8 minutes before I arrive, and then not for another hour and a half - who makes these timetables?)
Stokka Airport: 16:40 18:18
Sandnessjoen: 16:50 18:30
Dønna ferries:
Sandnessjoen: 17:45 19:40
Bjørn: 18:10 20:10
Day 2: Dønna
Day 3: Dønna
Day 4: Dønna to Å
This one is another problem...
The seemingly sensible way would be:
Ferry:
Bjørn: 09.05
Sandnessjoen: 09.30
Bus:
Sandnesssjoen 11.00
Mosjoen 12.25
Train:
Mosjoen 13.08
Bodø 17.25
Ferry:
Bodø 17.45
Moskenes 21.00
...which gives a nice mix of transport, and the rutebok gives, but when you look up the Moskenes ferry timetable it says you have to be there 45 minutes beforehand.
So that leaves
Boat:
Bjørn: 06.55
Bodø 11.50
Ferry:
Bodø 14.00
Moskenes 17.30
which may be less travelling time but involves being stuck inside a catamaran all morning, and catamarans make me sick.
