I love Norway!!

It is no secret that I Love to travel. Well I really dislike the act of travelling itself, but i love to go to new places and learn about, see, experience new places in the world! When I can do it on a budget, it is a total dream! I have several groups that I follow that alert me to great travel deals. IT is hard to control myself and not be on the go every other week! Recently I cam across a great airfare that I couldnt pass up. Norway. I love going to places that I have never been. I had never been to Norway, so I jumped at the chance. I really didnt know anything about Norway, so I turned to Pinterest and looked at peoples posts.
The airfare was to Bergen Norway. so I mostly looked up things to do there. when planning our trip, my husband Ken and I went back and forth about where to stay. We could stay just in Bergen or we could stay a different place each night as we traveled around to different cities, villages and fjords. But in the end we decided to stay at one Airbnb in Bergen. we rented a car so that we could have some freedom. (I highly recommend this)

Monday-got oriented with Bergen, drove around and walked around Bryggen (old city-World Unesco Heritage site) ate a gyro/ BIFFIPITA  at
