We travelled from Kirkeness to the Lofoten Islands on the Hurtigruten ferry. This is a classic Norwegian experience and the ferries travel from coastal town to coastal town via the sheletered fjords to protect them from the North sea storms and big swell. The ferries range from luxurious to basic and we struggled to get used to our cramped little cabin on the MS Lofoten. We took some spectacular pictures of the fjords and surrounding areas whilst we were travelling.
Ons het op die Hurtigruten ferry boot van Kirkeness na die Lofoten eilande geseil - dit is n klassieke Norweese belewenis. Die groot ferry bote seil daagliks tussen die kus dorpe en bly meeste van die tyd in die fjords sodat hulle beskerm is teen die onstuimige weer van die Noord see. Die kajuit was baaaaaie klein en dit het n rukkie gevat voordat ons daaraan gewoont was!
Zurich Airport
We arrived in Zurich with our trendy new rucksacks on wheels - we were packed and ready to travel!! Our plan was to spend two nights in Zurich and travel to Bern for one day for some sight seeing. Our long awaited trip had started.....
