Geiranger Fjord

Reindeer at the top of Mount Dalsnibba
at an altitude of over 4,500 feet

Some of the hairpin bends going up to the top of the mountains.

Our ship is getting smaller. As we climb the Mountain.

Would you believe this is the sunset at midnight in Norway?
The night lasts about 4 hours.

London day

Our last day was spent traveling from the ship to London and then we took a double Decker bus around London.





The Tower of London


They have jousting in the field next to the tower of London


The Tower of London. WE are missing the "T"


Can you find the eye? (Ferris wheel)


Queen guards going to Buckingham Palace for the changing of the guards. Parliament

Does this remind you of Marry Poppins? Chim Chimney











London bridge. So cool hu?
















Germans attacked London using Buzz Bomb in WWII.

It's on the side of the building.















Do you want to use this toilet?















Here it is in the middle of the road.















Check out all the buses on the bridge. Lot of people.

Evan said, "We are not the only people in London."















So excited to see Harry Potter.
