You might remember that I explicitly talked about always walking either uphill or downhill in Stockholm, and I never thought I would visit a more hilly city-- that is, until I visited Bergen. Bergen is an old city situated on a harbour and surrounded by beautiful fjords, seven mountains, and when we went, the sun set at 9 pm! That definitely didn't mean that it was warm, as evidenced by the snowfall we experienced.

We reached Bergen on Friday morning, rode the shuttle bus into the city, dropped our bags at our Airbnb, and head out to look for some food. Impatient and hungry, we grabbed lunch at Subway and walked to Mt. Fløyen. We considered using the funicular (Fløibanen) to go up the mountain, but decided against it and hiked up instead to see the spectacular views. We intended to hike the Vidden trail up to Mt. Ulriken and use the cable car to get to the city, but we got a little lost on the way and, realizing we had spent a total of about 4 or 5 hours hiking, decided to walk directly to the city from the trail.

Famished and extremely tired, we went to a Burmese/sushi place for dinner, and I think I had the best noodles of my life there! We head back to our Airbnb after that and watched Without a Paddle before falling asleep.
