The Oslo to
Bergen Rail is said to be one of life’s grand experiences. Our journey took us up and over Norway’s
highest peak at Finse (altitude:1222m) where snow was still visible on the
ground then through Myrdal and Vloss. It
is said it is possible to see the blue ice of Hardangerjokul Glacier (to the southwest)
though I’m not sure anyone recognised it… Just so you're fully informed, this rail line runs at the highest altitude in Europe.
So, as pictures
tell more than words, here are (quite) a few shaky ones to see how amazing that view really was…
(GS decided
to experiment with her polarising lens during this particular journey. The result, like her mood at the end, was
rather black & purple...and still lots of reflection from the train windows. Oh well, and thank
goodness for mobile phone cameras, isn’t it?)
