Europe 2025

After the walking tour we had a lunch of reindeer hot dogs. Reindeer hot dog is a Norwegian delicacy that can be found at Bergen's Trekroneren hot dog stand, just around the corner from the McDonalds. It was delicious! I would highly recommend it.

After lunch we took the Fløibanen funicular to the top. We enjoyed the spectacular views before taking a hike around the area. We enjoyed sitting at the top with a glass of wine before going back down. Czytaj więcej

We had our final dinner together at the Bryggen Tracteursted restaurant. It was a delightful meal. We hated to see the tour end. The group was close and we got to know most of our fellow travelers well. After dinner some of the group used their funicular tickets to see Bergen at night.

Mary and I came back to the hotel, packed, and tried to get to bed early. We woke up at 3:15a in order to catch a taxi at 4:00a for the Bergen airport. Our trip home went from Bergen to Frankfurt, Frankfurt to Toronto, and Toronto to Columbus. We ended up with a 5 hour delay getting out of Toronto. Our original flight was canceled and we were fortunate enough to get rebooked on a flight later in the day. Some on our plane had to spend the night and catch a flight the next day. Our trip this year was bookended with travel troubles. But it was a wonderful trip. Czytaj więcej
