Norway is one of the most beautiful places on the planet and, fortunately, I was able to enjoy beautiful weather on a beautiful ship as we cruised through the fjords. The cruise began in Oslo, traveled to Gothenburg, Kristiansand, Stavanger, Alesund, Hellesylt, and Olden. Each destination was more spectacular than the previous. The scenery was breathtaking and the entire trip was awe-inspiring. After traveling to 62 countries, Norway is now on the top of my list of beautiful places. The video covers the experience at the destinations, not the ship. I have posted a separate video on Ponant's Le Bellot ship and the onboard experience.
