Mary has taken to asking this question which amuses me no end. However, when we saw a man dressed in viking garb walking down the cobblestone streets in Bergen, she did not. Meanwhile, Bergen was a beautiful city, homes built into the steep hills above the city and home to a living viking city. There we had dinner and caught a jazz trio the night we arrived and walked the shopping streets the next day before boarding the Polaryis, our ship. The local fish soup is a sort of cream based bouillabase with a hint of nutmeg and no shells. Very tasty, perhaps more like a bisque.
A visit to Hakons hall was rich in viking vibe. We boarded the ship 'round about 6:30 for an early dinner and departure.
Postscript: If we cannot find vikings, we will become them...We have taken to wearing viking hats.
