After a successfull first tour Manuel and me were looking forward to the new group coming in on Sunday: seventeen customers, twelve from the US and five from Germany - everbody looking forward to a great week. Even the weather forcast wasn't good for this week, we managed to get around the rain on the first two days.

Beautiful Alesund

Day 1: going to Runde, Norway's third largest bird colony, we experienced the first fery ride out of many

Where are the birds?

Day 2: Atlanticvegen, the Atlantic Road, connecting a group of small islands by seven bridges

Day 3 was full of good riding along endless fjords. The weather turned out to be better than the forecast, only towards the end of the day we got some rain.

Day 4 took us to Geirangerfjord, one of the most spectacular fjords of Norway. On a one hour boat trip we learned about waterfalls and abandoned farms.

The German part of the team

Day 5: The trolls on Trollstigen were hiding there home in fog, so there was not too much to see. Descending towards the south we hit "strawberry country" - yummy!

Sharp turns on Trollstigen

Yummy, yummy.....

Our international crew......

....and one of the happy tourguides

Thanks to all of you, it was a great tour!
