Wow, simply stunning!! What a breathtaking landscape, and the towns look so cute! Norway must be such a beautiful country! I've been to Sweden, Finland and Denmark, but never visited Norway. Def. something I should do.
Glad that you had such a good time! And thanks for sharing the pics!
Thank you for the WONDERFUL pictures! :) The trip sounds fantastic. Welcome home!
Norway is a beautiful country.:) Thank you for sharing your photo's, it was like being there. Are those albino reindeer?
Beautiful pictures Lut! It's great the two of you had such a great time! Thanks for sharing!:)
That's what we were wondering too! We asked the guide, but he didn't react on the "albino" word, I think he didn't understand our question. But he defenitely said those whites were all raindeer too!Quote:

-Trondheim
-Hönigsvag: this is the northernmost city , from here you can go to the Northcape : this is 71°N

We crossed the Artic circle twice: this was in betweenTrondheim and Hönigsvag, and Hönigsvag and Tromsö.
Wow, that is our next big dream!!! We think to do this next year in August!! We are not sure yet, as we have to travel to Seattle first, which is already a very long flight for me............Quote:

Yes, the verandah was VERY nice!!! Last time we had a cabin on the lower promenade of the Rotterdam, so this veranda was so super!!! We have been on our verandah quite a lot!!
I didn't take the computerclasses, as we went on an excursion in every port !
Wow! Spectacular country and scenery. You both look so happy and relaxed - the best kind of vacation.
So glad you enjoyed the trip. :) Norway has a breathtaking scenery for sure, quite different to flat Denmark. What a fancy cabin you had! :eek:
Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Important part for me, no plane, just a short drive to Seattle.
Set sail at 4pm Sunday
Monday at sea.
Tuesday arrived at Glacier Bay. I took so many pictures I thought I broke by camera in the cold weather. So no more pictures Most travel was at night.
Wednesday morn, arrived at Juneau, all day there.
Thursday morn, arrived at Sitka, all day
Friday morn, arrived at Ketchikan 7am, left at 1pm, long ride to Victoria BC
Saturday 6pm arrived Victoria BC, departed 11:58pm
Sunday, arrived Seattle 7am. Had breakfast, then departed for a leisurely drive to Portland.
Two weeks later I tried my camera and discovered it was working again.
Great pictures.:) I'm glad you both had a great time.:)

You're so welcome Randi!! I wish we'd passed Kopenhagen again, it was so neat to meet you!!Quote:

It must have been breathtaking to actually be there. Thank you and Bernard for sharing your dynamite trip! Don't hesitate to post more pictures of your trip, this was a real treat!
