    Hi Simon and Will. You may have missed a couple of tourist opportunities but sometimes the simplest things can turn out to be the best. Nature can often be the very thing we didn’t know we needed. Flam and the surrounding area is beautiful. No matter where you guys are filming, your videos always do your locations justice. Thanks so much ❤

    • @MemorySeekers

      I had to look it up but apparently white birch or downy birch are the most common in Northern Europe. It was a shame we could not ride on the boat but I think we managed to find some equally wonderful places we would have otherwise missed.

    • @MemorySeekers
      @MemorySeekers  Рік тому +1

      You can indeed! Haha, yes I would imagine in summer some of the places we went would be busier and more cars so lots of stops to pass traffic etc. Certainly on the Stegastein Viewpoint part. That is popular. No so sure many people venture to the cave waterfall and see those views.

      @@MemorySeekers I certainly appreciate your trips & guidance - I'm not sure why I was never sparked to visit Scandinavia - probably because I lived in US & when back in UK, was out of my reach $$$, but would certainly love to go should I ever be fit enough & back in the North. But I'm hoping others will go on account of your videos, even if I can't go! Keep safe!

    Just incredible views!!! Disappointing about the river excursion and the Viking Village, but things happen when traveling, and you just regroup. That's what makes it an adventure! The overlook above the fjord would have my knees shaking. You must feel like you are hovering in the sky. You always find the most beautiful places to film. Glad I can join you each week. :)

    • @MemorySeekers
      @MemorySeekers  Рік тому +1

      Yes it was a real shame we could not take the boat ride. Apparently is very rarely happens that the ice builds up to a level that the boat would be damaged to travel. Still we can keep it on the list for next time we go, maybe in another area of Norway.

      It is a large country with a small population, which in summer is full of visitors. This time of year is quieter but most of the areas we have shown you will get quite crowded in the summer. We liked the peace and quiet for this time of year. Glad you enjoyed the trip with us.

      When we arrived and saw how they had hidden the village around high walls we were suspicious and then the prices which from memory worked out about £50 each was just to much. I could well be that its an amazing place but from the outside and the adverts they didn't go a good enough job at convincing us it was worth the ticket price.
