Flåm

We had our first ‘non-travel’ day in what felt like two weeks and so we enjoyed a sleep in followed by a yummy buffet breakfast! :)

We then went on a kayak tour of the fjords at 10am which was made even more amazing by the incredible weather we had! We paddled for over 5km and our guide gave us some interesting ‘facts’ about the fjords. We learnt the scientific reason behind the formation of the fjords, which is that a glacier melted and effectively pushed the rock mountains away to open up the lake. The more traditional Norwegian reasoning behind this is that two trolls were fighting over the land, and the losing troll was dragged through the mountains - with the resulting imprint from his body being the fjord and opening in the valley!

After kayaking, we chilled on the beach and did a bit of travel admin in the afternoon. It was great just to relax after a busy few weeks!

We then went for dinner in the Viking brewery where we had the Viking platter paired with matching beers - absolutely delicious! We then chilled out and played some cards before bed :)Meer informatie
