When we arrived in Bergen it was cold and pouring down rain. Typical Bergen weather. We layered up and headed out. It wasn't as bad as we thought it was going to be. It wasn't that cold and it turned into an on and off drizzle. The second day was much better - we had sunshine part of the day. I wish the weather would have been better. We would have stayed longer. Bergen is a beautiful city and we only saw a small part.

| Bryggen - the old wooden wharf area in Bergen. It was first built in the 12th century. It has burned down and been rebuilt many times. |

| Instead of standing in long lines at tourist attractions we decided to see a show. Norr - a hip hop viking show. It was excellent. It told the story of Thor. There were only 6 dancers and they were amazing. We really enjoyed it. |
