Myrdal back to Bergen

This last leg of The Nutshell tour is a 2-hour fast train ride back to Bergen. As we had gotten up at 7:00 AM we were fairly tired. Tiredness and rhythmic train motions causes sleepiness.  I took some pictures between naps.  Half of the ride was a repeat of her first leg in the morning. Unfortunately rhythmic train motions also causes motion sickness. So I spent a good part of the trip staring at this tiny symbol the furthest distance in the train from my seat. A lady and her husband were sitting across the train from us and she was marking every tunnel as we went through it. It was fun to watch because sometimes she would get forgetful and rushing get another one marked on her piece of paper. But then there be another one right after that so we all get to start laughing a bit. She said it was 74 tunnels that we went through in the two hours.
Play time

Long views

Nice color coordination 

Flying the flag
Cabins

Some snow in the mountains

Small summer homes in the high country

A river flows through it

Yet another tiny church

Little Bridge across the river. We saw kayakers just upstream

The Architecture on this waterside Warehouse was quite elaborate

We stopped in tunnel number 68 for a long time. Not quite sure why but if we had to we know which way to run

This is the symbol for the tiny hammer to break the glass windows in case of emergency also the thing that I stared at for perhaps 45 minutes

Back in Bergen

See you train!
