Back from the day trip.

We head a nice day at our friends summerhouse, we went for a trip with the boat.

12:00 they picked us up and we are on the way.








We are there, it is bigger then it looks.







And again, a beautiful view. we even saw a eagle, chase some seagulls.





Here we vent for ice and cafè, on a nearby restaurant. It used to be a trade place in the old days.

Now it's only tourists and local people using it.





We left for home around 17:00 and on the way home there head been an "head to head" accident on a bridge.

The traffic where stoped for 3 hours, it was a serius accident with 8 people involved, allso some kids.

We hope they all is going to be alright.....

Our friends summerhous

Tomorrow we are going to visit some friends summerhouse, it's one of the nicest place on earth.
We are going with care, about one hour from bergen and they pick us up with boat. I'll been there several times before but it's the first time for my wife.

The following pictures is from this place and was taken some days ago, we were taken a fireplace out to the summerhouse, there is no electricity so some heating is nice to have in cold evenings.

The harbor

The fireplace, so heavy....

I'm just waiting for him to start the engine so he can come and pick me up.

Fortresses in Bergen

In the city there is 3 fortresses, i went for a walk in two of them..
Bergenhus fortress and Sverresborg fortress. The fortresses is going back many hundred years an if you want to learn some Bergen history i put in some links (Wikepedia)

Entering the top level of Sverresborg Fortress


From here they could defend all of the city.

On my way into Bergenhus Fortress.





Håkonshallen, a royal ceremonial hall erected during the reign of Håkon Håkonsson between 1247 and 1261, was badly damaged by the explosion of a German ammunition ship in 1944, but was restored by 1961. Erected in the 1560s by the governor of Bergen Castle (Bergenhus), Erik Rosenkrantz,


Rosenkrantztårnet
(Rosenkrantz Tower) served as a combined residence and fortified tower


Thanks for taking this walk with me.
