It was a crisp morning in the mountains! But another beautiful day. We had a big breakfast buffet and then made sandwiches to have for a picnic later. Since we had to take an alternate route, we were in a time crunch and couldn’t make as many stops.

We did stop for a couple of photo ops and lunch at a rest area. The scenery continued to be incredible until we had to go through a 25 km tunnel (!) and a series of other tunnels.

Our destination was a fjord cruise in Flam and we made it there just in time to board. There was a huge MSC cruise ship in the port and it dwarfed the fjord boat. Anyway, I have been looking forward to this cruise for a long time and it did not disappoint. We stood out on the deck for most of the two hour trip and we were awestruck at the beauty around us. Wow!!!

After the cruise, we headed to Bergen and arrived there around 8:30. We dropped our stuff at the hotel and went to find dinner. We were hungry and tired after a long travel day!
