This morning we had a bus tour of Bergen by Luigi, an Italian living in Norway. He spoke broken English and had to ask the Norwegian bus driver a lot of questions. Needless to say, not impressed. I can’t speak three languages but I’m not a tour guide either.
Oh well, the city is of course beautiful and the weather is nice. Our cruise director said he has not ever been to Bergen when it wasn’t raining. Good weather followed us this whole glorious trip!!!
The only thing of interest I saw during my bad bus tour was the Architecture school. It is in the ugliest building in this city...pretty funny I think. The picture is the one that looks like a concrete building with a peach colored bottom.
This afternoon we went to the little wooden houses next to the wharf. They look and feel like they are ready fall down. They are leaning pretty good. I am posting a picture of the steps I went up to a Christmas shop. They were crazy crooked. Anyway, the buildings are filled with cute little shops so it was a nice stroll.
We also went thru the fish market. I don’t eat seafood so it smelled really bad to me but for a normal person, probably not so much. The people inside were very friendly.
Now we are back in our room packing two+ weeks worth of stuff so we can go home. Our bus leaves at 3:45 am tomorrow. Painful.
1. Hanging dried nightmare fish
ReplyDelete2. Reindeer hot dogs and reindeer hamburgers
3. WTF is going on in that sculpture that looks like a bomb from a Looney Tunes episkde
Yep, time to come home.
1. The fish guys thought it was amusing that I reacted to this hanging fish nightmare. He said it was stock fish (if I understood his accent) which are dried cod. Aren’t they gross.
ReplyDelete2. Exactly. What would Santa say about that...just not right.
3. I don’t know. Woody and I were intrigued but I can’t find anything on the Internet. I looked.
