We made it to Bergen!

After a long and beautiful seven hour drive from one side of Norway to the other, Paul and I made it to Norway's second largest city, Bergen. Bergen is said to be Seattle's sister city, and from our experience so far it's true. The city is right on the water and surrounded by evergreen covered mountains. It rains here about 275 days a year, but is beautiful this time of year. The people also seem to be much more laid back here and have a very relaxed way about them, just like in Seattle. There is also a busy fish market right in the center, similar to Pike Place Market.

We went to a Pub last night and it might have been in Seattle. Everyone was dressed in Seattle type relaxed atire, and the bar played music from Seattle based bands all night. The beers were a little cheaper (7.00 instead of 8.00 dollars) and we had fun talking to a lot of the locals.

We are here one more night and then we will take two days to make our way back. We might camp out in a cabin along the water front tomorrow night.
