Balestrand to Bergen ("Ivar there's a Hedgehog in our tent!")

"And he's eating our swiss chocolate.....!)

On the day we arrived in Balestrand, we spotted a little hedgehog shuffling through the bushes, we decided to leave a bread roll for him outside so he would have something to eat at night. Little did we know....

At 2 am in the morning, we woke to a sniffling / shuffling at the front of the tent, fearing rats or something even bigger, Dee quickly looked out the fly to see a spiky hedgehog eating not the bread we had left for him, but our stash of swiss chocolate.

He had a girlfriend, and we named them Harry & Hermione the hedgehogs. We threw the chocolate that was left onto the grass, and by morning they had eaten all of it, plus the bread roll!!



We got on a ferry first thing in the morning to Bergen. It took 4 hours through some open water and nice fjords, beautiful riverside homes and old abandoned buildings. We arrived in Bergen just as the rain started, and headed for the nearest campground.
