This is it from the Fjords…
I love that Bergen still has phone booths, we have them here in Denmark, too!
I guess there’s graffiti everywhere, even in beautiful old villages :(
Umbrella repair? Really? This place would go bankrupt in the US.See what happens in the absence of Walmart, etc.?
These last two shots are of Bergenhus Fortress, one of the oldest and best preserved castles in Norway, it dates back to 1240’s.
I’ll be back soon with recipes and more expat living stuff. Danish summer 2011 is cool with lots and lots of rain. But I’ve ordered a new raincoat, which of course won’t ship until end of July (I do not exaggerate when I say the entire country shuts down in July!), so I’m expecting a warm and sunny August :)

I love the phone booth – it doesn’t seem claustrophobia-inducing, because it’s so open looking. Lots of white houses – very picturesque!

Lovely pics! We didn’t make it to Bergen on our recent trip to Norway, but it looks gorgeous! As someone from London, I always have to wonder at our phoneboxes too…I think it would be too sad to get rid of them now as they are too iconic, but do people still actually use them!?!
