Bergen, Norway

What we did:
- Slept in…again and tried to find coffee. However it was our first Sunday here where we realized everything was closed.
- Road-trip to Bergen. It was raining so drove straight through to Bergen. We were sad to leave the fjords.
- Fire alarm went off in the hotel that night. Most of the hotel evacuated to discover it was a false alarm
- Caught up with Sally / Mom for first call check-in before going to sleep that night for a bright and early 3:30am wake up call for our hike the next day.

What we ate:
- Oatmeal for breakfast. Not sure we had lunch?
- Trent tried reindeer sausage at the local fish market in Bergen, but out of principle couldn’t bring himself to try the whale or moose sausage.
- Trent tried the local delicacy “fish cake” (aka cod pancake) and panicked because it was gross. Then bought a crappy overpriced hotdog that he regretted for the rest of the night. Steph smartly chose a Norwegian cinnamon bun.
- Went to a local pub to try some other Norwegian brews. Steph’s was a lot more manly than Trent’s.
- Dinner at Kafe Spesial in the local college town to capitalize on those college prices. Split shakshouka (picture) and a lamb burger which was not very good.

Fun facts:
- Bergen is Norway’s second largest city.
- There are free range cows and sheep roaming everywhere in Norway. We had to drive at a good pace at all times to make sure we didn’t hit any.
- We didn’t take any pictures in Bergen! This was a first of the trip.Read more
