The Journey To The Flåm

This is a very overdue post but I must put an entry so that I won't forget this part of my life. hehe..

About 3 weeks back another two colleagues and I went here.(You could also go here). The journey took us about 9 hours I kid you not. We started from Sandefjord at about 9.30p.m and reached there around 6.30a.m the next morning. And got lost few times on the way...This place that we went is nearer to Bergen compared to Sandefjord. The temperature went as low as 2C as we drove up to the otherside of the mountains.

It was still too early to check-in into our apartment, so we took a nap in the car. Obviously the rest of the Norwegian sleep in their caravan, but out of nowhere 3 Malaysians slept in their small Korean car hehe.

Our apartment is located in Underdal, small town near by with a population of 80 people and a small church that could only fit in 40 people at a time. Underdal is famous for its fjord and waterfalls and goat cheese. Yup, I tasted it. Strong taste with stronger after taste that comes later.

Enjoy the pictures as usual...

the drivers....magnificent view....breath taking...


our apartment is just beside the river.....



the only shop in underdal.....look at the scenery....need i say more???

the waterfall....the railway track of the the flåmbana....love this picture of me n my housemate....nice

ignore me in the picture...but look at the fjord behind me hehe....in the flåm museum....beautiful view from the top..

We went on the train to the top....went on the fjordsafari tour on a boat....and took lotsa pictures. I think all of us had fun. Too bad we didn't not have time to go kayakking and jungle hiking...We said goodbye to The Flåm at about noon and started our journey back home. The magnificent breath-taking scenery will forever remain in my mind and if you happen to be in Norway, this is a must place to go. :)
