A week later and we're back in Bergen. Back to internet access, traffic, and city life. Though Bergen is the second largest city in Norway, by U.S. standards, its still quite small.
We had 5 spectacular days of cycling through the fjords and experienced all Norway had to offer...wind, rain, sleet, snow,....and even a little sun. Apparently we were in the spot one day that registered the coldest temperature in all of Norway and experienced the wettest August in a town called Lom in the last 100 years. I've never had so much fun biking in such miserable weather! But when you have 2 amazing guides, a landrover with coffee and hot chocolate for you every 10 km, and an absolutely amazing group of riders, you can't help but have fun and wish it would never end. The pictures don't even do the scenery justice, it was just phenomenal.
We ended the week last night in a local pub, dancing until 2:30am to a 2-person band playing everything from Bruce Springsteen and Elvis to Shania Twain and Alan Jackson - all with a Norwegian accent. It was hilarious! Today, e
veryone has headed home except for Theresa, Trevor and I who leave tomorrow. It seems so strange without the rest of the group here!
