Flam




The rose must be one of the favorite flower in Norway, as you see lots of them and they are beautiful!!!
















We stayed in Flam for 10 days relaxed, and enjoyed the scenery.

Had to share the dock with the big cruise ships. every day there were a couple of different ships in port.

Signs of spring



Even at this altitude you see signs of spring bursting forth soon after the snow melts.

On top of the mountain



1800 meter above sea level!!!

and the snow is 7 to 8 ft deep in places.

On the way up





















One of many water falls.

No matter where you are in the mountain you hear the rushing of water.

Looking down from above



Rented a car for a day and toured the area of Sognefjorden.

Part of the day turned out a bit rainy and cloudy, but still managed to get some shots worth keeping.

more Naeroyfjorden


Could not resist to take the dingy down and catch the reflection of "Le reve" in the water

Naeroyfjord

Naeroy fjorden is on the list of "world heritage sites" and it is absolutely spectacular.

The reflection in the water is incredible!!!
