... br><br>Alesund was the next stop, a place of 40,000 souls with the largest fishing fleet stationed out of its port. After climbing the 418 steps to the top of the Aksla mountain in the middle of and over looking Alesund, one gazes upon a town constructed in the Art Nouveau style. The original town burned down completely in 1904 and this 'new' place is amazing. Wonderful buildings. At Alesund a person is introduced to several sub-sea tunnels ...

... museum was open until 11pm. It was actually a very interesting history of the Hurtigruten line and the way that it has grown and evolved over the years. It even included a decommissioned boat from the early days when travel was, at the same time, more luxurious and more rough.<br><br>Coming next: Tromso and the most northern point in Europe<br> <br>

... was sad but the 10-15 minute walk did warm me back up, in particular my toes. The walk also paralleled the funicular track for a bit and we were lucky to be passed by one of the cars during our walk along this section. The zipline experience had been fun and I look forward to doing other runs in the future.

Am Dienstag das Spiel gegen Island hatten sie ja gewonnen, somit hätte ein Sieg gegen Frankreich den Halbfinaleinzug bedeutet. Aber was soll man sagen - gut gekämpft und ...

... auf keinen Fall) und haben uns den A... abgefroren. Nur gut, dass wir Schals und dicke Jacken mit hatten. Ja, das Spiel ging dann eine Stunde später los und der wiederkehrende Strom - stellvertretend das Flutlicht - wurde mit großem Applaus begrüßt. Das Spiel war nicht so doll. Tampere versuchte gar nicht erst an dem 0:3 -Rückstand aus dem Hinspiel was zu ändern und ...

Dann fang ich einfach mal an: Bin also am Mittwoch 10 Uhr mit dicken Augen in Berlin losgeflogen und gegen 17 Uhr mit Zwischenstop in Kopenhagen in Trondheim gelanden. Beim Anflug auf Kopenhagen hab ich sogar die Bruecke ueber den Great Belt gesehen, war schon beeindruckend, wie sie da mitten in der Meerenge im Wasser verschwand und zum Tunnel wurde.

... most interesting Norwegian I have met here. He is the same age as my parents and lives with two of his three daughters. After his lecture (which involved coffee and waffles med brunost) he went into a philosophical speech about life and experiences. It was incredible.
