Breathtaking views of fjords
Leaving Flam was conveniently after dinner, we made for the top deck to enjoy it.
Rainbow across the fjord
The views from the ship were wonderful and a rainbow spanned the water near a bridge across the fjord.

This Eidfjord view is like a model village
I imagined retracing my steps from last time I was in Eidfjord from the top of the deck. (8/8/240 I had walked to the church and further on to a little museum and violin makers and repair shop, which displayed "Hardanger" fiddle, which has four strings and four extra strings. It can make an almost ethereal sound, unique to the instrument and to Norway. Also in the picture above is the little supermarket, where I bought plasters for my blisters. In fact our tour with Ambience left Eidfjord in early afternoon, so we were able to enjoy the spectacular views from the deck. Below are pictures I took on my walk on my visit five years ago.
We woke up in Haugesund
It was fortunate we had visited Haugesund before. This time the weather was different and I didn't disembark. Nearly two years ago, we had taken a coach trip to a museum, church and Viking village. It had been a long walk from the museum, but well worth it, with re-constructed long boat houses, feasting halls, dwellings and other utilitarian reconstructed buildings. Here is a picture of the path we took to the Viking village to the church, a couple of years ago. (7/8/24)
