So after more than 5 hours on the boat, watching how the world is amazing everywhere and how you can feel yourself free and spiritualy high in these kind of places, it was time to come down to earth and find the way to the hostel in Montana, out of town...
I finally got there just on time to see a bit of the sunset, it was probably around 10:30 pm, surprising for me !
I had only one day to explore Bergen, i don't think i saw a lot but...
I started early in the morning to climb all the way up to the Mount Ulriken, 642 m, highest of the seven mountains surroundding Bergen, kind of hard walk, very steep, through the clouds, actually litterally in the clouds, so i couldn't get the nice view over the city, but something was special after this effort.
I walked a bit in the city center, very flowery, a bit chilly with the wind, definitly colder than Oslo ! Had lunch and rest before going to the Mt Floyen as the weather became finally nice but with the Floibanen funicular this time... Nice view there, just relaxing again, drinking a coffee, talking with travellers and locals...
I choose the plane to get back to Oslo, because it was cheaper than the train but it was also really interresting and beautiful to see the fjords and snowy moutains from the sky... The dream must go on....
