Norway – Bergen and Balestrand

Bergen – Our time in Bergen was rushed as it was more of a stop-over as we prepared for our journey through the Norwegian Fiords to the town of Balestrand. We spend a night and enjoyed wandering around the old town and the interesting passageway. The next morning we headed by ferry to Flam to take the famous Flam Railway.

Balestrand – We had heavy rains and Balestrand for 48 hours, which the community was grateful for; it had been a very dry summer. Despite the rains we enjoyed hiking, a boat trip and some time playing travel Catan. On the third day the sun came out giving us greater capacity to appreciate the beautiful views.
