Thanks for the news! We leave next week. Hope it warms up a bit.

I hope that it does as most days were less than 10 degrees and it was freezing on Mount Dalsnibbawith more than 2 metres snow.

Just returned from a 7 day HA trip to Southern Norway. The scenery was fantastic but it was cold - temps below 8 degrees most of the trip and intermittent rain. Bergen had the best weather.

Went on a HA excursion on the Trollstigen drive and the guide, from Alesund, was an ex policeman and he was fantastic - knowledgeable - about many things, esp. sport - and funny.

Great pics.

Hope to see as much as Amsterdam as you guys did.

Looks like Eastern Canada, Lars.

Hopefully.

Thanks very much

Hi Lars/I-Cruiser

How is the weather in Southern Norway in June?

Thanks

Garf

:)

Thanks. Will look for it.

Thanks

@ Pollypops: Was it easy to catch the minibus to the waterfalls from the tourist center as the other tour ends too close to our departure time?

Thanks

Thanks. Will be going there in June.

Must have been exciting to drive there - was your car automatic?

Thanks

Hi

Has anyone used Fjord Tours, Norway, for any excursions?

Thanks

@ Pollypops - Thanks, will try them.

Hi

As anyone been on this bus excursion in Eidford as described: A sightseeing trip to Norway's largest waterfall Vøringsfossen with a spectacular view and a visit to theHardangervidda Nature Centre where you can see a panorama film of a journey past fjords, mountains and waterfalls. or their website:

Thanks

Hi NYFan

Where did you hire the car and approximate cost for the car and gas?

Thanks

Thanks TMLAalum,

I received further information about renting a car and doing the "Path of The Trolls" in a rented car, rather than a private tour or ship excursion. Car rental was cheaper and I think we can take our time and see a lot more. It's a mini cooper and seats (4) people.

Hi cruise_bunnies

We will be doing the same next June.

Was it easy to book the car rental - did you book in advance and did you pick it up at the the rental agency. Was it easy to drive the Path of Trolls?

Is the waterfall walk easy from the docking area?

Thanks

Garf

@ SumoChewie - Thanks. I have also booked at the same hotel for next year. Was the place good?

Thanks

We are doing the same cruise in June 2015. Any advice?

Did you stay in Rotterdam and Amsterdam? Any suggestions?

Thanks

Once again, thanks very much, Lars.

@ I-Cruiser. Thanks for the pics.

How long did the walk down take you and did you drive up?

Thanks

Hi UKcruise88

Geiranger: 07H00 - 16H00

We have plans for Alesund but haven't decided on the others , as yet.

Thanks

Hi

I will be in Bergen next June, is there any else to do besides the HOHO Bus?

Thanks

Thanks very much @ Luv2CruisersNZ.

Is the ship's laundry still in operation as we might be lazy?

Thanks

@ SumieChewie

Thanks.

How much does it cost and does it use USD?

We are booked on the Nordic Legends next year on the same ship. I hope that it will be as exciting as yours. Was there laundry services available plus Laundromats?

Thanks

Thanks very much, RuthC

Hi

We intend doing the 7 day Norse Legends next year - MS Ryndam - is there unlimited laundry besides the coin operated ones?

Thanks
