What I don't understand is why burning plastic waste and using the generated heat (for example for district heating) is not discussed more often. I think recycling offers very little benefit over simple burning of plastics due to the amount of oil still being burned everywhere compared to the amount of oil used for plastic production.

I think you were more lucky with the moose, they are so shy...

To see reindeers you probably would have needed to go a bit further north - the sheep on the street in the south are replaced with reindeer on the street in the north I would say

 

A bit older picture (Sept. 2022). Altough wild camping is allowed in Norway, it is not that easy to find a suitable spot where the tent can be anchored sufficiently and it is acceptably flat ... But seeing a herd of reindeers (in the background) does excuse much :)

No, we went on to Sofia (Bulgaria) ... But probably should have stayed ;)

No, almost no wind. It really is a nice spot... They started to build some large scale tourist village there, there is a whole network of roads... But it has failed and so there are almost no buildings, which is nice in my opinion ;)

 

Weather was nice, a little under 10°C in the evening of Dec 30, 2023. Near Kriaritsi.
