Bergen

A rare sunny day in Bergen.  We started out walking from the hotel to the Floibanen and then took that to the top station.  We hit it shortly after opening, by the time we came down the line was already getting pretty long.

And without. Bergen harbor
There was a nice playground at the top where Conor met this "playground troll" who apparently "keeps monsters away from playgrounds."


After taking the Floibanen down we walked over and through the Bryygen again.



Gawking at the boats
Conor loved seeing the city
And apparently share my love of phone booths
Norwegians are serious about small cars
Angel hipster crossing?
We did a belated birthday dinner at 1877, may favorite dinner in Norway.  Very small with an open kitchen and only a tasting menu.  The staff was amazing, the chefs in the kitchen let Conor watch and explained what they were doing.

Why you don't do a 3 hour tasting menu with a toddler
