Beautiful Bergen

.Very busy day exploring the town off Bergen and it is a place I would re visit.The Fish markets were brilliant and Im hooked on Trolls !! There was lots going on in the town centre with street performers.The buildings were unique,we spent around 4 hours window shopping,The farewell Bergen on the back end of the boat was fantastic with everyone singing to British music and waving Union Jacks ! After dinner we went to the Lords Tavern to watch karaoke singers and some were excellent (one in particular was identical in singing to Al Jolsen) !) We were introduced to Norwegian Trolls here and Ive ended up taking some home !!

Tromso day 10 in Norway

Up early and after a quick breakfast (Docked in Tromso) we boarded the bus for a four hour island tour to Somer island and as usual the scenery was magnificent !! In a very large underground tunnel there were actually road round abouts throwing the tunnel roads in all directions to save congestion in the city !! Interesting fact we learnt today as we passed the shrimp factory The shells of shrimps are used in ladies cosmetics !! Tromso is a fascinating town boasting the further most pub/brewery and differnet denomination Churches On return we sat in The Crows Nest until the ship set sail and what a wonderous time !! The captain steered thru some amazing Fjords,on the cold side BUT we were not to be deterred ! We are gradually sailing South but the nights continue in daylight for 24 hrs !!After dinner we watched the 2 violinists girls and once again they were quite entertaining.Later we ventured to the 60/70 s dance party and the dancing buggared me up (and I was only spectating ¬!!) Time is moving very quickly now we are on the downward run..TONIGHT IT IS VERY WINDY AND THE SEAS ARE DESCRIBED AS :ROUGH:
