Little door

This tiny "door"/shutter in the big, sturdy wall of the Akershus fort in Oslo, Norway, drew my attention.

Once our cruise ship was leaving Kristiansand, Norway, I spotted them removing the "welcome moose" that had been greeting passengers at the gangway. Also notice the rolled-up red carpet to be put back in storage along with the moose :)

Monument

A war monument celebrating (from what I can gather) the liberation of Norwegian Kirkenes by the Russians in 1944. Kirkenes isn't exactly the kind of town that sees many tourists.

Sailing in Hornsund, Svalbard, the weather wasn't very nice: rain, sleet, wind. But all of a sudden, there was this brief break in the clouds.

Very "helpful" street sign in Bergen, Norway.

Bergen

This is Bergen, the Norwegian city famous for its old town, Bryggen (pictured) and for its enormous amount of rainfall: 2.250 mm/year, spread over more than 200 rainy days. In fact, it once rained for more than 80 days in a row in Bergen. Guess I got real lucky, huh?
