Who knew that this was an 11 hour drive from Trondheim to Bergen? I guess it could have been a little shorter if I had paid attention to where I was driving. I ended up taking the scenic route over the Sogne Mountains. Beautiful scenery, no doubt. But at three in the morning, you want to actually know that you are making some headway. Some of the roads where so narrow that two cars couldn`t even get past each other. I got to Bergen at seven in the morning.
