Norway: Flåm

Our fjord cruise boat finally took us to our destination-Flåm where we were to spend 2 days & 1 night. The name "Flåm" means "little place between steep mountains"

Surrounded by steep mountainsides, roaring waterfalls and deep valleys, Flåm is a real paradise
(this pic was taken from a high ground which we climbed to see Brekkefossen waterfall)

Blooming sunflowers

1st time I saw black cows

Apparently, rainbows are a common phenomenon in the fjords because of Norway's high latitude and frequent, light rain in the fjords

The river water is so clear!
Prob cos it's water from the melted glaciers from the surrounding mountains
The locals all drink directly from it

Flåm Camping & Vandrarheim
Super good accomodation at low prices!

Even had our own kitchen

Many Caravans also used the same site

The next morning, after checking out, we made our way towards the mountain farm Otternes

How much will you give to live here?
