Five weeks today we should be back in #Bergen, #Norway for the first time since 2013 when it was, incidentally, the very first place in Norway we ever visited.

We didn't have any real plans back then but we've more of an idea about what we want to see this time around and we've got our eyes set on better sources of beer too. In 2013 we had a pint of some generic lager (Hansa) but we've identified proper craft beer locations now.

An overcast day that's had some rain earlier. We're in a city looking across a wide, empty road to the other side up a street that joins this one. That street rises slowly towards buildings at its far end that are set at the base of a large, rounded, wooded hill that fills half the backdrop and has its uppermost reaches touching and just obscured faintly by the low cloud. The architecture of the buildings either side of the junction are markedly different. On he left a large building has red wooden planks on its exterior with green accents on the frames of large windows set in it. Next to it, on the corner, the colours are largely a warm yellow and red with the former colour that on the wide pillar forms that decorate the small patches of brickwork. A crenellation effect on the top of the building gives a slight appearance of a castle and wording reads "Hanseatic Museum" on a black banner. The building to the right of the street is made from dark brick but its flat facade has a stepped, angled shape, like a flattened ziggurat, and the impression is almost church-like.
