Bergen to Oslo, Norway


We woke up in the morning at Bergen, and headed to the train station! We got the 8 am to Oslo, which was supposed to be a six hour ride, actually turned into 7 and a half hour. The train ride was so amazing, we passed through tiny Norwegian villages and many different fjords. When the train climbed over the mountains, we got the highest point on the trip and stopped. The train had technical problems! Apparently it happens a lot on the particular route that we were on. It started up after an hour or more. Arriving in Oslo, Andys relatives were waiting for us! Anders, and his very cute twin girls, were waiting and took us back to his flat. He is a chef here and he had a great dinner planned for us! We had fresh salmon in marinade, and a wonderful dumpling and sausage soup. Petter, his father came over for home made waffles, famous here in Norway. We took a short car ride to a lookout over the city at night, which was very beautiful! Today we are headed to town to explore, and then having a family dinner! Prague is next, we fly out tomorrow, another adventure begins! Love to all!
