My recent trip to The Norwegian Fjords - some of Mother Nature's best work.

After a flight to Amsterdam and a quick train ride to Rotterdam, I boarded the excellent Celebrity Apex for 9 days in the Norwegian Fjords.Apart from 4 enrichment talks to a full theater, I was able relax and hike several miles through spectacular countryside.Geiranger, Flam, Olden, and Bergen were the stops en route.Camping is popular of course, but for the people who live in these remote areas obviously enjoy their way of life and high standard of living. A few few months of cold weather in the year is obviously not a deterance.No crowds, superb scenery, very safe, healthy ifestyle, and contentment.The busy port of Bergen is bustling with life, and Oslo, although modern, is protective of their historic buildins, rightfully so.Yes, I would go back there and stay in a mountain resort for a few days.This podcast includes some info on geography, history, vikings, and other "did you know?" items.http://www.malcolmteasdale.com
