My emails out didn't start this early, but I do know what we did, so I'll give you a rundown. We took a train to Myrdal from Oslo, a fast one. Then we took a slow, scenic train to Flam. At one point, they let you off the train for about 10 minutes to take pictures of the waterfall. Two women come out of the rocks, dressed in medieval attire and dance to what sounds like Irish folk music, but is probably Norweigen folk music. Then when the song is over, they disappear back into the rocks. Once we got to Flam, we took a boat ride through the fjords to Balestrand where we spent two nights. There we met some great couples. We had the 2nd floor with an ocean view. Our balconies were all connected, so we chatted and shared our favorite spots etc. We went out to dinner with Rose and Erik, through Steve and Louise's recommendation and stopped by the older hotel which had a BMW club stop by. The next day, we headed out on a glacier excursion. We started at the museum and headed out to the glacier where we could actually get close enough to touch it. Though the funny signs did warn us of the danger, we took the risk and walked on it a bit before heading back to the bus. We then spent the afternoon in a book town which was full of used book stores. Heaven for an English teacher. Pete took a nap. I found two very thin and very packable books. One had poetry in English and in Sweedish and one was another book of poems that I decided to get because it had the Bridal Blessing in it and it seemed appropriate. We took the ferry back to Balestrand and checked out the aquarium. There was an exhibition of some great woodcarvings, so I took a few pictures. That about covers it for that town. Overall, it was probably the most relaxing part of our trip. We took a boat out the next morning and headed to Oslo. The owner of the hotel, graduated from CU. Small world.
