[07.26.2007 to 07.28.2007] -- WWR | In Transit | Bergen

**Time to do some catching up.... excuse the lazy commentary hehe. At least I added captions to all the albums!**


White-water rafting down the Jostedal River (Class III). Not much white-water, but absolutely stunning views. Unfortunately the amateur doing the photography forgot to bring his spare battery so we only got pics of half the trip.... d'oh!



This is a collection of random pictures taken along the way. I spent an awful lot of time sitting on trains, buses, and planes. Combined with the time spent waiting for those things to take off, its fairly obvious to me that reducing overall scope and distance when traveling is the smartest thing to do. After all, alot of the time + money spent during traveling, is on transit!




Bergen is the second largest city in Norway, and unfortunately, also known as one of the wettest. On average, it rains about 250 days a year in this town and it was positively pouring as I stepped off the boat... aughhhh stupid weather. The rain put a big damper on my enthusiasm to really explore the city, but I didn't have much more than about 16 hours in the city anyway so it wouldn't have really mattered. I'm sure the night life and party scene is pretty sweet in the city but much like Oslo, I only used the city as a pit stop on the way to the airport.
