We're in Bergen on the west coast of Norway. We are here to tour the fjords this weekend. This is our last trip before moving home. It's also a trip I've been waiting to do for years. The E16 across Norway is magnificent. It's a long drive - 7+hrs to cover the 500km distance, but every bend in the road brings another breath-taking view. Waterfalls everywhere. Water (fjords?) and rivers. Farmhouses and sheep. Snow. Yes, we saw lots of snow today. The closer we got to Bergen, the wetter it got. The tops of the mountains disappeared into the mist.
Norwegians are master tunnellers. We drove through a lot of tunnels today, the longest being 25km. That's a long time to be underground.
Time for bed. Early start tomorrow - first leg of the fjord tour leaves the dock at 8am!
