Bergen

Last day!! 🥴 Enjoyed Bergen. Had lunch with our ship dinner friends. 
It was raining today, plus both of us have been here numerous times, so, we did not explore as much as usual. Did a few card games, and relaxed.

We have an 5:50 am flight tomorrow. Bedtime will be around 7 pm.
Thanks for following us. We loved your comments. See most of you soon!

Molde on the Moldefijorden

 Today is our last full day on the ship. We spent it in and around Molde on the Moldefijorden. The feature of this area is the Atlantic Road. We drove on it in a bus. Great bridges. It was raining as we went out on the Atlantic Road. It cleared up quite a bit on the way home.




A monument to the people who lost their lives in the sea.







Back in Molde. Michele, That is Molde's futbol stadium! They are supposed to be pretty good?

We love these little tug boats. So cute.

Rorvik

 We crossed over the Arctic Circle again, to Rorvik, an ancient fishing village. We passed through about 6,000 islands to get here. It is definitely warmer. The sidewalks are getting slushy, until about an hour from now. Then, they will be very slippery.

The Seaman's Wife...

This Museum was cool.










Bye, bye Rorvik!

Lodingen

The fjords and straits coming into Lodingen are 365 degrees of gorgeousness. None of these pictures do the area justice. Videos are too much for this internet to upload.










Lodingen has a population of under 2,000. Hurtigruten ships used to stop there, but have not in awhile. The locals were happy to see us. They even opened their stores on Sunday for us. We paid them back in sales...

This is wild sheep hair around this women's neck!


Off to the yarn shop.



And, back down the hill.

The wind came up and the day changed. Minus 1 degree was nice for awhile. With the wind, not so much.



Ready to go, Sylvia!!
This is a big biking area -- most probably during a different season.



The walk back to the ship. Yes, we walked. All is well.



Back on board. Can you see the bicycle?

Our usual card playing location, with a panoramic view. 
We are on a Game 17 of 5 Crowns -- running score!

Good Night, as you are enjoying the football game.
