Day nine - Flam
Up early for the 8:11 train from Oslo to Myrdal....the train climbs as the trip goes on...at 1200 metres above sea level (Finse), there is snow on the ground, we stop at a ski station..skiers get on and off....very desolate terrain...slowly we redescend to Myrdal (822 m above sea level).
