Day 3: Kristiansand, Norway

Hannah was woken up this morning to the sound of a Norwegian singer singing traditional folk songs on the dock, what an alarm clock! 

This is Brian. Brian the moose. He met us as we came off the ship. 

Nanna outside Kristiansand’s fish market… was rather smelly!

Nanna having a brief rest in a beautiful oasis of trees and flowers (one of my favorite photos of Nanna ever)

Hannah sitting by one of the fountains in Kristiansand’s Water Park was lovely and peaceful with the sea behind and wild flowers in front. 

 

Pretty door in the old section of the town called posebyn.

 

After some walking about we found the Kristiansand’s Cathedral. It was beautiful. When we went inside the organist had just started playing a recital so we sat for a while and listen.

 

Nanna and Hannah at the Kristiansand’s fortress entrance. People actually live in it…. Pretty bleak during winter! 

There is a lot of development work going on around the dockside, building new flats and creating green areas. At the end of one of the old docks they had built some gym equipment… and of course the big kid had to have a go! Can’t take her anywhere! :P

Finally the windswept nutters head back to the ship. It has been a beautiful day in a beautiful town.
