Norway: Bergen(Mount Fløyen)



About to take the renowned Funicular up Mount Fløyen
Caught up with 3 girls from Chalmers: Yulin, Zhaoxin, Kaiyun...



... and Jet



The Spectacular View of Bergen



We were lucky to catch a number of parachutists about to take off
When the parachutist is ready, he just turn the ropes in hands to open up the parachute so that it will be caught in the predicted direction of wind and he will quickly leap off the plank...



...into the beautiful city below



Contrary to my expectation, they can stay in the air for quite long.
If the wind is right, they can also ascend higher whenever they wish.






Gigantic little troll at the playground on Mount Fløyen



Bryggen-UNESCO World Heritage site
Rebuilt after 1702 fire but building pattern is from 1100s



Cute, little basker playing the mandolin



The monument saluting the brave Norsemen Bergen sent to Britain during WW2
