Norway day 7


Of course the only day I'm allowed to sleep late I manage to be fully rested by 9 in the morning. But I guess that was nice, because I laid in bed for awhile and then watched House before going into town and exploring the old houses and buildings by the water. 

At 6, Christina picked up Nora from the airport, YAAAYYY and we all went to the top of a mountain (by gondola) where we had the best view of Norway so far. So I took a great panoramic picture, which I will put online as soon as I can...

Two things about Norway! Every single house I've stayed in... not one had a garbage in the bathroom. This confuses me. I usually like to throw out dirty tissues and hair from my brush. Now I just keep a small bag in my room for garbage because it's alot easier than hunting for the elusive garbage bin.

And, I have no idea why, and I have asked 3 different people who all insist it's a coincidence, but EVERYBODY (girls) in Bergen wears white pearl earrings. I would say about 80% of the girls with earrings have white pearls. So I have to put on a pair to fit in! 

Well, staying at Kristin's was very nice and relaxing, but tomorrow again I must wake up early for the Norway in a Nutshell tour... a 5 hour boat ride through the fjords and a beautiful train ride the rest of the way to Oslo. Tomorrow is supposed to be one of the few sunny days in ages! So there is a lot to look forward to.
