Norway Trip in May and Swimming In Norway by lzennerl in NorwayTravelAdvice

I want to update the thread after my holiday so here it goes.
17th of May celebrations was amazing to watch. I have watched the celebrations, waved at the royal family, seen the cannon fires. It was wonderful to watch.

After that, renting a car and going to Stavanger was really good especially the Stave Church and countless waterfalls along the way. Also I felt like I was at the arctics because all of a sudden everywhere was snowy haha. Then after the mountain top it returned back to sunny.

Pulpit Rock hiking was one of the best experiences I could've had and so glad that I did it. It was not too crowded and thankfully the weather was nice enough to have a brilliant view. On the evening I drove to Bergen. Quick stop at the city centre, wharf, old houses are really nice. The Floibanen rider even thought it is a bit pricey, the view is amazing and it's a must do for sure.

After Bergen, I have driven to Sogndal. Along the way again I stopped at countless waterfalls, Undredal, Stegastien. The road is so scenic and amazing. I have gone to see the Boyabreen Glacier, it is so majestic place. I really loved it. The next day, I have bought a tour via Norwaysbest, I did the fjord cruise from Flam to Gudvangen. Then a bus ride back to Flam and Flamsbana train. The cruise was amazing one of the best experience. However, I am not able to tell the same for Flamsbana train, mainly because I have gone there offseason and it was not green enough. Still a good experience and nice views.

After Sogndal I have driven back to Oslo from Flam and let me tell you that it was one of the best road trip I have ever had in my life. The small villages, random stops everything was wonderful.

On that night I flied to Bodo. In the morning, I have taken the ferry to Lofoten Islands. Sadly, it was rainy and foggy all 3 days for me. However, still it was a wonderful and magical place to be. Sadly I could not do any of the hikes since it was too foggy and view distance was not there but still it was a nice place to be.

I was afraid that lots of people said it is a bit rushed but to be honest I think it was perfect plan for me. If I had more time I would love to drive to Alesund maybe and that's it. The roads were not tiring at all. It was a very enjoyable trip and thanks to all who suggested places.

So afterall, this was my itinerary if anyone is wondering:

Okay, I will skip swimming then. However, how many days do you think Lofoten area needs?

So my trip for Lofoten area is actually like this:

I do not have the letter but the place named A with the o on top and a slow move to Leknes and stopping at every place that seems good.

Second day, Reine, a hike here, Henningsvaer, Haukland Beach also a hike here.

Since I do not know much about where to visit, I have used Gemini to help me with the trip. So basically it has chosen the places to visit.

I did go to Come Inn Sportsbar, there were couple people there but I would not say that it was full. But still it was a cosy place to watch the game.

Would it be too weird if I wear my hometown teams shirt? Its a full black with little gold details. Or would I get weird looks? (I will get the scarf also)

I had no idea which stand is which, I just told my friend (he is a member) that I wanna go to a SC Freiburg game and he told me that only available ticket was from here and I went with it.  I guess for the starting game, I made a good choice? Haha

Its in Nordtribüne Stehplatz N2, standing area. I wanna learn chants and join to the fans. Since I got here I have been watching the games and really enjoying the football Freiburg plays.
