The Cruise continued

Next port of call was Arendal, a very pretty place.

We had just docked and were having breakfast when out of the window I saw all these girls appear. They were forma local school and proceeded to give us a delightful welcome by dancing (in the rain) to music from Frozen. I quickly popped out of the restaurant onto deck to get some photos.

After breakfasr we headed into town and a visit to another church,


Both the churches we visited had these ships suspended from the ceiling and are apparently called votive ships.

fter leaving Arendal we sailed Hardangerfjord  to the waterfall Furebergfossen.



 Next stop was the small town of Eidfjord.



Unfortunately Roy was suffering from the nasty virus so stayed in the cabin. I had a walk around  before visiting the tourist office to claim tax back on our purchases, and came across a row of knitted trees! Apparently when they first appeared they were so popular that they have been replaced every year.

 Our last day was cruising in Lysefjord which was truly spectacular. The photos really don't do it justice.


Next post will be back to crafting.
