Very nice suite of images.

Nice work. Would like to visit. Reality suggests that it is unlikely so thanks for posting. Wouldn't see Bergen otherwise.


Glad you enjoyed the pix frjack, thanks for looking and commenting, much appreciated. I enjoy your pix of Croatia, visited there several years back.

Umgowa Bwana, glad you liked the pix. Bergen was the only place we had to walk around in the rain and it was mainly in the morning. It was beautiful and sunny when we left. Go figure. Thanks for taking a look and commenting.

Very nice shots, Marsdad. Brings back memories. Was there any whale meat at the fish market? There was the last time we were there.

Love the photos and love Bergen. Spent a few days there in the old part of town in a hotel just a block or less from the docks. Then a train ride to Oslo and a day there, before a plane to Longyearbyen, Svalbard for polar bears, reindeer, walruses and seals. Thanks for sharing your photos. They brought back great memories.

beautiful! I think you really captured *Bergen* -- you certainly stirred up memories from my trip there last year. Thank you for sharing these photos! I can practically smell the fresh air from the hike back into town and from the all the seafood being sold!!

I was just in Bergen two weeks ago. We boarded the Viking Sun there. I wanted to get a shot of the training ship but it left port before I could get a shot. Were you on the Viking Sun for the "Into the Midnight Sun" cruise? I took over 1600 photos and am in the process of culling them before post processing. Bergen was nice and the rest of the trip for us was fabulous. I can't wait to work on my photos from Geiranger fjord, I was up early for the float in to port. Great photos, I hope mine are half as good.

Thanks carl for the look and the comments, glad the pictures brought back good memories. Did not notice any whale meat although it was in evidence several years ago when we visited.
