Norway

DH and I will take another vacation from August 10-22, 2019 when we will be traveling to Norway and enjoy a round trip to see the fjords. We booked this vacation at Kras and met some lovely people in our group. Our busdriver and host are Dutch and a couple (Willem and Elly), so they were great together, and always complement each other in the given information. Willem knows his facts about geology, whereas Elly knows a lot about the Norwegian culture and history. They showed us some marvellous places, like Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim and  Alesund. While in the bus, driving the Peer Gynt Road,  Elly told us the story of Peer Gynt, a "fairy tale" specfic for Norway and made us listen to some the music that was especially composed for this story. We also drove the Trollstigen, a very steep, winding road near the Geirangerfjord. We also took the train from Flam to Myrdal in the Auerlandfjord

We have seen lots of waterfalls and even drove an extra round on a roundabout that has been built inside a mountain! Norway is quite expensive, but a beautiful country in the Northern part of Europe.
