What Perry tells me is that each of those trips has the potential, if poorly executed, of having him in the water! They don't look like much, but remember, those blades he's letting go of are long and lifted arms shifts his center of mass in a very skinny boat, LOL.

That greyed out thing goes to instagram.

Day 4 was as far as I got posting on Instagram during the trip, in large past because I got overwhelemed with the photos I took on the boat.

So.

Boat in the Nærøyfjord.

Wow.

Just... Wow.

It was spectacular, I'm sure it's as awesome in the summer, but the winter was special too! The light, of course, but the blue sky that peaked though the clouds had a special and icy quality of blue that just enchanted me.

It was cold. I didn't have a screen cap, but I saw -1F on my phone, something I have never seen before! That said, the only bits that really suffered were my fingers, because of wanting to take photos!

I took some great video but can't share it because of "codec" issues. I'm so fucking pissed that I can no longer easily just post video!










Bus to Voss then Voss to Bergen on the train. Lovely ride, beautiful sunny snowing landscapes and train tracks by the edge of a fjord!





We arrived in Bergen to the aftermath of what the hotel person said was the worst snow even in 30 years! There was lots of snow on the ground... or rather, let's be honest, lots of slush. By then, I was resigned to snowy walking conditions, so I just rolled with and we had a nice walk along the harbor. I didn't get photos of the classic Bergen houses from harborside until the next day, but here are some others I took.

Behind the classic houses. BTW, not a single straight line to be found anywhere in them, LOL. Lots of settling since the Middles Ages!



Newer but still interesting buildings.

OMG.
