Part II Splendour of the Seas Port of Call: Geiranger, Norway 9AM - 5 PM Norwegian-flagged Splendour of the Seas rests comfortably in Geiranger Fjord as her passengers explore the beautiful little town at the end of the fjord. There is a short tender ride in to town. Here you can buy a genuine Norwegian sweater and other souvenirs from a gift shop with flowers  bursting from the roof. A necessary stop. This lone poppy grabbed its little bit of sunshine  from behind a building. Farmers and tourists stock up at the local grocery. This is the camping center. We followed a road around the fjord... ...to a rushing river formed by snow melting  high above in the fjord. Click here to see and hear this river of melted snow. Splendour of the Seas and other recreational vehicles. In addition to camping, a hotel is available. In a restaurant overlooking the fjord, we met some friends from the ship. This is the view looking up from our table at the restaurant. My husband, Kjell, took this image of me with a friend I met in the fjord.  I'm on the left.  :-) We captured a few more images as we walked  back toward the tender. This ferry transports vehicles and passengers  into and out of the fjord. As we watched Splendour's tender shuttle passengers back and forth to the ship... ...we enjoyed a soft is (soft ice cream cone)... ...with many others. All too soon it was time to go back to the ship, but we had more treats ahead before it would be time to retire for the night.  As light and shadows change, various beauties of the fjord are revealed.  Ahead of us  we had still the beautiful journey back through  the fjord to return to the North Sea.
