Photo Friday: Norway

It’s photo Friday.  And that means that it is time for another set of pictures I took in the past.  Today I will share some images from Norway.

I went to Norway twice.  The first time I was still in school and traveled across Norway for 6 weeks on my bicycle.  Yes, this is correct.  I was driving 2,500 miles (about 4,000 km) on my bicycle through those mountains.  This is as crazy as it sounds.  But on the upside: this was the first big trip with Nadja who I married later.  If you survive a trip like that when you are 15 years old, there is nothing you cannot survive as a couple later in life.

We went to Norway again 6 years ago, which was about 20 years after our first trip.  This time we drove a car and visited some of the places we have been to before – and many more.  This country is so beautiful.  We will be back, probably in 20 years to keep the pattern.

Here are the images I have selected for today:
