Fortress and Canon Overlooking Bergen Harbor
One place our ship stopped during the 2014 Voyage of the Vikings (Holland-America) was Bergen, Norway. We were both surprised and delighted to discover that there was a ’tall ship race’ event taking place. There were many classic (old) sailing ships tied up all around the inner harbor. We were able to walk around the harbor area and see the historic buildings there.
