I assume you mean this picture:
http://users.jorn.nu/gilbert/Norge3/images/08_GPS-vag_2.JPG

This is a road that was only visible on the GPS so we got curious and decided to try it on. It is situated by the road to Sulitjelma east of Fauske in the northern part of Norway. The "cave" is an old tunnel where the railroad used to be, and eventually the road too, until 1972 the only way to get to Sulitjelma was by train, in -72 they started to tare up the rails and make it into a regular road. Nowadays this particular stretch of road, featured in pictures 07, 08 and 09, are replaced by a longer tunnel.

By the way, there is quite a interesting connection between picture 05 in set 1, picture 03 in set 3 and Dundee in Scotland, is there anyone that can untangle this enigma?

Not that i know of, but you are close, since a submarine is quite a large sandwich, isn't it?

A quite large number of pictures added to my website , a few from a weekendtrip to Northcape and a bit over 100 from my trip around the east side of the baltic sea. Not any artistic or photographic masterpieces, but perhaps enjoyable for someone. Oh, new adress too http://www.gilbertk.se .
