We FINALLY found a museum that was open on our last day in Bergen. We only had an hour til closing time though, so the awesome girl at the front desk let us in free of charge. Then we ran around madly taking these shots and being awed by religion and stage design... We're too lazy to write a real blog about this, but let our photos tell the story!... read more

"I hate flying. Damn planes!" "My legs are TIRED!" "Where is my damn sock?!?" "My feet hurt!... Especially just here. See?" "I seriously cannot find my sock." "I feel like death." "Wow! Check out your crazy eyes! Hahahahaha! How TIRED are you?' "That man has a REALLY big guitar!" "We won't need coats outside..." "I can't find my ticket." "Does anyone know where my sock is?" "WHERE DID I PUT MY TICKET?!?" "I think it's this way.... Oh... Wait..." "IS ANYTHING OPEN AROUND HERE?!?! ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Ah, just some of the delightful phrases uttered by your heroic travellers. (We edited out the profanities for our PG viewers.) Our last day in Bergen was completely, chaotic - just see the map attached of how far we walked.... It was also slightly disappointing.... T... read more

So, Bri here, because Michy is busy making herself beautiful, and Alyce is tired because Michy and I made her galavant around most of Bergen in search of cultural enrichment. But anyway, back to last night. We clothed ourselves in our sexiest dresses, made our faces look delectable (but not necessarily edible) and the put on our fluourescent and somewhat crazy tightsleggings. Then we spent a considerable amount of time taking pictures of our ridiculous selves, starting with the tights. I'm sure they'll make an appearance here, so you'll all be able to feast your eyes on the awesome that the three of us make. Anyway, once we'd had our fill of giggling and playing silly buggers, we debated the temperature outside. We decided (unanimously, even though I should damn well KNOW better by now) that ... read more

Europe » Norway » Western Norway » Bergen April 17th 2009

After a long, restful sleep, the intrepid explorers awoke early to a fresh 3 degrees C morning... We wandered downstairs to our free-of-charge breakfast. Turns out the Norwegians enjoy sardines and nutella-in-tubes, but we did manage to secure some wonderful coffee, toast and cereal. We strolled down to the fish market on the wharf and discovered a beautiful pewter and stirling silver jewellry store where we purchased some lovely objects. We visited Bryggen, which we discovered is slowly but surely sinking into the ocean... (but evermore, what isn't?) Most of the buildings seemed to be shut up, we couldn't figure out if we were too early for opening hours or if they were under repair (many were on a fairly angry angle!)... The Bryggen museum was shut (again, too early...turns out these Norwegians enjoy sleeping in) ... read more

Our plane was delayed twice in KL - first due to a mix-up on the terminal resulting in a later estimated departure time, secondly by a mechanical error. Although the malfunction only took about 20 minutes to fix, we missed our departure spot and had to wait for another one to open up. All in all, we left two hours later than planned. Michele slept like a baby (a baby with a slightly broken neck and alot of drool) but Alyce remained wide eyed for the endurance of the 12 hr 40 minute flight, leaving her feeling slightly deranged by the time we reached Amsterdam. As we touched down, a friendly Dutchman informed us that Amsterdam airport was once a huge lake (which had since been drained) and we were, infact, 4 feet below sea level. ... read more

Hey everybody, we have arrived safely in KL! Our flight has been delayed a little, and we have lost some feeling in our legs, but beyond that everything is rocking our little socks. It's hot here. We're betting it won't be in Amsterdam. Love to all!! XoXo Michy & Lycey (NOT Nisey)... read more
