Our Bergen Binge: Seven Norse Course(s)

Hi All,

We were in Bergen for less than 24 hours, and we spent nearly 20% of our time eating (and drinking) dinner.

It turns out that there was a restaurant in Bergen that was written up in the NY Times called Lysverket

Not much from the outside

which serves “Neo-Fjordic” cuisine.

When was that last time you had “Neo-Fjordic” cuisine.  We generally dine only at the “Paleo-Nordic” restaurants, as I’m sure you do.

O Little Town of Balestrand

Hi All,

Our destination was the quaint village of Balestrand

I know it looks a lot like the other fjordian towns, but this one is Balestrand

As we got off the ferry from Flam, both Jill and I felt the almost imperceptible alteration in the space-time continuum.  The population of Balestrand surged from 1,294 to 1,296 (an increase of almost 0.15%), bumping it up to the 373^rd most populous municipality in Norway.
