It seems like we're well into the fall season but we can't help but reminisce about the summer that passed. Was it only just 3 months ago that we visited the lovely country of Norway? We never did put up a travel post about it then but here's a look back at some of the highlights of our trip. We started our trip off at the coastal city of Bergen. After spending a couple days there, we embarked on an unforgettable cruise that took us north along the coast of Norway.
WARNING: This post is picture-heavy! But I promise, the captions are short and sweet! :)

We started off our trip at the coastal town of Bergen, where colorful homes line the streets |
|
Our majestic cruise ship, The King Herald (Kong Harald in Norweigan!) |
|
No trip to Norway is complete without a view of the famous fjords |
|
The cruiseship would dock at some sparsely populated towns with stark, barren landscapes (glacier in the backdrop)... |
|
Which would quickly turn into lush surroundings with greenery and waterfalls! |
|
We also docked at Lofoten, an archipelago that lies within the Arctic Circle |
|
Norway is also known as the "Land of the Midnight Sun". Indeed, it was 1AM when this picture was taken! |
|
Inside a cathedral in the city of Tromso that lies within the Arctic Circle |
|
A yoga pose at the edge of the Earth...well, more like the North Cape, which is the northernmost point of mainland Europe. The North Pole is literally just a few hundred miles away! Brr! |
|
Being so close to the North Pole, we actually go to see reindeer |
|
Handmade dolls made by the indigenous Sami folk at the North Cape |
|
The last stop of our journey was at Stavanger where I couldn't help posing in front of this hair salon! | | | | |
