It seems like ages ago that Charlie and I went on our  Scandinavian getaway. I suppose it has been about a month and so much has happened since then. Now, finally, I have a moment to sit down and think about our trip. Our first stop was Bergen, a beautiful little fishing town. We explored the market, and went for walks. We hiked to the top of a nearby mountain and got a beautiful view of the city. While in Bergen we went on a train/boat fjord tour called 'Norway in a Nutshell'.  Highlights: Passing through the town of Evanger (my families namesake) and trying real Norwegian Kumla (a staple at all holidays in my family). One of the funniest things about Bergen was finding a place to eat. Not only was it truly expensive, but figuring out where to eat was hilarious. In most countries we try to avoid other tourists. We figure the only way to find good food is to eat where the people that live there eat. Well, in Bergen it seems that only the tourists eat in the 'Traditional Norwegian' establishments. The people of Bergen all seem to eat at Fridays. The same Fridays restaurant that we have here in the US with the same menu, only it is about triple the price.

Here are some photographs from the trip, enjoy!
