Bergen, Norway

06-16: Today we took the hop-on hop-off bus for the complete ride. Which brought us back to the Fløibanen Funicular. We got tickets quite quickly and then took the short ride up. Of course, there are fabulous views from up here. Even though the day is a bit overcast. We decided to have lunch at the restaurant called Floirestauranten. Stuart had some fabulous Norwegian soup with lamb, ham hock, and root vegetables. We saw our ship in port. We will board tomorrow and still have another overnight in Bergen before departure. Back down the Funicular. We waited 35+ minutes for our bus to come. At last, we got to our stop and walked to the hotel. Stuart had some work to do and I worked on photos and this blog. We decided to go back to Scruffy McMurphy’s for another World Cup game. We did not realize the next game after that was going to be Norway vs Iraq. We could not resist staying and having a blast with all the Norwegians, especially since they won!!! What a memorable occasion. After that we walked back to the hotel and off to bed. We need to pack and check out by 12p, so no rushing in the morning this time! It will be good to check into the ship where we can settle in with a bit more room for everything. The hotel has very little space to put anything, we have mainly lived from our suitcase for the last 3 days.
