View of the 'Nordlys'


Our boat, the MS Nordlys, is right smack in the middle of this photo. It's the one with the dark blue bottom, white top, and red stripe along the middle. The Norwegian company, called Hurtigruten, runs 13 ships up and down the coast of Norway, in addition to voyages elsewhere. A ship leaves Bergen heading north every day and takes, obviously, 12 days to go from Bergen to Kirkenes (waaay north in Norway, near the border with Russia) (Sarah Palin can probably see the boats as they arrive and depart) and return to Bergen. We will be on our boat for only 2 full days, 3 nights. We disembark on Friday the 27th at 5:30AM.
