Well, nice to meet you, Bjergen Kjargen, from Kneurgen, near the Joergen Fjords. Hmm. Kneurgen, that's in the Klargen Province, near the Biburgen River.

I am in Geiranger, Northern Norway and it is a really nice town in a fjord with a population of 300 people (plus a few seals and killer whales). I also have some sort of strand of the Martian death flu and I made the stupidest joke I have made in a while. Someone said that I didn’t look too well and I said I was traveling through Liberia and caught a bit of a cold. No one found it funny and I thought they were going to throw me off the boat.

North Western to Norway is everything I thought it would be. Dark calm waters with  narrow inlets, towering peaks that are stilled snowcapped and some have clouds resting quietly. Endless waterfalls and topless mermaids despite the cold water. Just a visual spectacular.

So now if I don’t die I have two hours to kill before I go onto a bus, kill another few hours and then take an overnight boat to Bergen and then to The Netherlands. The way I feel now I would be quite content to spend a day inside a hotel.
The prices here. From 28 dollar beer to I am not making this up, a 2800 USD cab ride. Thankfully I didn't pay for it. There was a mix up with a train and I was going to miss my boat so the National Railroad of Norway sent me by taxi to Lillihamer and beyond.
