To reach the North Cape, you have to dive into the tunnel, 212 meters below sea level, because yes, the objective is on the island of Magerøya.
Seven kilometers under the sea. Three kilometers downhill, an abyssal flat section, three kilometers uphill.
An underground world where every car makes the tunnel resonate like a plane landing next to us. You feel very alone at the bottom of the sea.
It's dizzying. My grandfather never knew this tunnel: it didn't exist. Before 1999, we crossed by ferry.
I'm thinking of him. I'm driving for him too.
