We stayed in Stavanger for two days in September 2022. One day we went on a Lysefjord cruise - the boat goes to the base of pulpit rock as seen being scaled by the diminutive Tom Cruise in one of the Mission Impossible films. The other day we went to the white houses area - old timber houses where fishing people used to live - now look to be mostly Airbnbs and the petroleum museum which was surprisingly "green" and apologetic about the exploitation of fossils fuels.
