Spring Break: March 22 Bergen- FJORDS!

This is truly where our vacation began. We actually even spent money this day! We bought Norway in a Nutshell tickets. We hopped on every form of transportation and saw the best sights in the country. It was a day of waiting, picture taking, being silly, and imagining what the world was like 1000 years ago.Our tour (with no tour guide) was supposed to be a train from Bergen to Voss, a bus to Gudvangen, a boat to Flam, an old fashion train to Myrdal, and a train to Bergen.

We woke up early (not early enough because we almost missed the train) and zoomed between the mountains and a river to the first leg of our journey.

Our bus was sitting in the horrid weather waiting for us. We merrily jumped on and shot-gunned the front seat like a couple of pros.

The bus stopped for an amazing waterfall; the biggest I've ever seen.

Caught a few great scenes on the bus ride to to Gudvangen

Our boat! Just kidding.

Here we are in Gudvangen waiting.

Waiting for our boat... it never came! we were stranded here for about two hours then had to take a bus to a different dock.

We waited at Flam, which was almost magical because it was like a hollowed bowl in the middle of the mountains with only a river for entrance and exit.

Playing in Flam.

The train we never rode to Mydal because our first boat never showed.

Our little boat to back to Gudvangen.

So this is a fjord.

Totally frozen waterfalls.

Do you see the Dragon?

This village must have been here for thousands of years.

The true definition of Awesome fits.

The one leg of the journey unfulfilled. We got our money back though!

Back to Voss, but we had even more time to kill. We explored and it was a tiny little town with a bit of charm.

Back to the mean streets of Bergen, so beautiful.
