Ship tip
Don’t use a prepaid currency card - pre approval reduces your available balance for 4/5 weeks
Wet wet wet; Got soaked
walked up to funicular 95 nok for adult return:
briefly saw a pale view before the rain cloud descended and then it was just searching for shelter ☔️
Took the shore excursion ‘Atlantic Ocean Road’ sat on the wrong side of the coach (left is best for all views first 4 hours) fishy lunch in the village Bud
Overcast wet day and a long time spent on the coach
Prior out of season experience of this port left a negative feeling; but this time the tropical flora Norway excursion to flor & Fjære island was fantastic- small corner of an island rioting in colour and whisking you to the Mediterranean ❤️
