We needed to give up our train tickets from Voss to Bergen in the end. Nevertheless, it…”

We stopped along the way when we wanted and to see some beautiful scenes. We were guided to the cruise and picked up afterwards. Paul helped find a nice lunch spot before sending us off on the Flam. Nice train ride with beautiful scenery. We were not prepared fir the cold at the top. Our fault.…”
