We left England!!!
Bergen
,
Norway
(Manos writing)
Sunday morning... I am awaiting for our "half baked" bread to get cooked by the shop in the campsite, while typing on this terribly old desktop :) I don't know if this even has USB connection to bring our card reader to upload pics, so no photos for now.
Oh, the keyboard is funny, I can type these: Ø, Æ, ¤, ü, û, â, å. nice!!
Okay, some little last minute problems encountered on Thursday are now sorted. We left Manchester at 10.25am on Friday morning (after around 2 hours attempting to squeeze everything in the boot and the back seats of the 206 - some items were victims and we through them away).
We arrived in Newcastle after 13:00, the "Queen of Scandinavia" boat finally embarked on 16:00 with an hours delay (but we arrived in
Bergen
on time).
England is back! The port in Newcastle is pretty ugly and the weather was gloomy at the time. Anyways. With some british pounds still in our pockets, we took our chances in the boat's slot machines and won some 30-35GBP, which treated us the cocktails of Friday night!
Saturday was quite relaxing, we even had the chance of sunbathing. Both me and Georgia are now double-coloured red/white.
18:00 is when we arrived in
Bergen
. This is a marvelous city. We had some chance to walk around yesterday, more today. And finally,
Norway
IS VERY EXPENSIVE!!!!!!!!!!! (milk 1.7GBP, beer in front of the see 6.5GBP and so on).
