Norway


Bergen Flesland Lufthaven 01.jpgI recently went to Stavanger and Bergen on business and got to see the Western coast of Norway from the air.  The first flight I took was a test flight with no passengers so essentially I got a nickel tour.  I managed to take a few pictures in between all the work I was doing to take and process data.
