Day 13 Molde, Norway (Part 2 of 2)

































































Our visit to Molde was fabulous…  Our first order of business, after we were the first people off the ship was to grab a taxi and head to the high ground…  We went up to the Belvedere Varden viewpoint high over the city to catch the city, mountains and fjord….  Unfrotunately mother nateure didn’t fully cooperate as the skies were overcaste and the sea fog rolled in.  It was a nice trip anyway.  One the way down we stopped to see some gardens and the museum…  Seeing a lot of the old houses was magnificent.  We spent the remmainder of the day wandering the strrets of Molde shopping and snapping photos….  My first visit to Norway was great.  We are really looking forward to Geiranger and Geirangerfjord tomorrow….

  1. Your pictures are very nice Jeff, my favourites so far are the ones of the iceburgs. I haven't had the opportunity to see one first hand, but now would really love to! One request though, I would like to see more photos of this 'Corrine' person that you speak of...

  3. Norway is a nice place. The people are fantastic. We have been to Oslo, on Rotterdam, enjoyed it. Your pictures are great as always, nice bokeh on the close up flower pictures. Thanks

  5. I've enjoyed following your many voyages, and am loving this one too. Sorry some ports have been cancelled, bummer! Norway looks beautiful! I love Alaska cruising, and a few of your pics reminds me of that. Thanks for posting your trips, we always enjoy them!

    Ditto on a pic of "Corrine". Also, who is the Capt. of Maasdam?
