Bergen Morning Walk: Train Bergen to Oslo

This morning we walked to a bakery that we had seen the prior night.  Cinnamon Rolls and coffee!  A foolproof way to start a day.  Again, it was an unusual day for Bergen, a sunny and warm (55°F) morning. So after the bakery we walked around the giant pedestrian squares that connect throughout the downtown.  We found the "posten" (post office) and St. Mary's Kirk (church).  Mostly we just walked around enjoying this pleasant city and watching the business men and women head off to work and appreciating that we were not.  We finally headed back to CityBox to check out of our room and catch a midday train to Oslo.  

The first portion of our travels were basically a roadtrip through the Scottish Highlands.  The second part was an air trip using LoganAir's small planes to hop from island to island all the way to the Shetland Islands and on to Norway.  Third leg was the mail ship for 12 days up to the Norway/Russia border and back.  

And now, we start the next phase which will be via train starting with traveling from Bergen to Oslo.  Today's train was a regional.  There is no fast train between these two cities.  It took about eight hours traveling past glaciers, mountain meadows, little towns, and towering mountains.  It was a long day on the train, but the view out the window was always good, excepting when we were in those long tunnels that the Norwegians love to build.

Looks like waves crashing to shore, actually two glaciers topped with clouds
