Hello from Bergen! We arrived yesterday for our Norway ABD. Bergen is Norway's second biggest city. Temperature is cool and it wasn't very crowded yesterday. Today (Saturday) is a different story. The city center is small and quaint. The wooden houses in front of the wharf is the most photographed place in the whole country as pictured below. It's not a great shot since I used my iPhone. We went up Mt. Floyen through a funicular, over a thousand feet above sea level and had a great view of the city. I bought the two way ticket online but one great option is to walk down the mountain. They have several troll statues along the way and a great way to fight jet lag. Food is very expensive, lots of seafood!!
Today we did a walking tour of the city (a private tour) with a wonderful tour guide. She did the Disney port excursion tour when the Magic was here last week. The hotel is in a quiet part of town and there is a grocery store right across the street. I'll post some more later and I'll see if I can post updates as we go along.
