Bergen

Today was an embarkation day. We went out into the town of Bergen, Norway. Our first stop took us to the ancient castle. I took photographs on the way to the tram that leads to the top of the mountain. We passed by the Anglican church but there was a service going on. We stopped at a little bakery for cinnamon buns and coffee. We went to the Museum of the Hanseatic League. Glenda bought a sweater while I ate the ham sandwich we brought with us. Glenda got hungry so we shared a beef quesadilla at a sidewalk café in the port. We said goodbye to Frank and Libby, who are leaving for Oslo today. While we were meandering back to the ship we saw a drum corps march by. After dinner we listen to the piano music of Olga in the atrium, and met some new friends who had just come aboard. In the evening we went to a concert featuring the music of Edvard Greig and Ole Bull.Read more
