We took a cruise from Bergen in the early morning- 8am for around 2 and half an hours to Balestrand, enjoying the spectacular view all the way- blue sky, white and soft cloud, green mountains and the reflection from the greenish water, breathing the fresh Norwagian air, and relaxing in this cool atmosphere. After arriving Balestrand, we changed to a smaller ship continuing traveling into the fjord till the glacier. The scenery is even more fascinating during the second half trip, quieter, deeper water color, mysterious space, creating a feeling that far away from the human world, and nearer to the heaven. Yes we are getting closer to the largest glacier in European continental- Jostedal Glacier! And it has a cute heart shape. The guide took us on a bus to the glacier museum before reaching to the glacier. Movie regarding the formation and history of the glacier was played, as well as some interesting cultural and scientific stories were displayed in the museum. Local people sometimes climb to the glacier challenging themselves and watching the avalanche, which also attracts challengers from allover the world, just in case the glacier disappears one day in the future.
Such a beautiful and mysterious place in the world!
我们在凌晨8点从卑尔根乘船大约2个半小时到达Balestrand,一路欣赏壮观的景色 – 蓝天,白云和柔和的云彩,绿色的山脉和绿水的倒影,呼吸着清新的Norwagian空气,在凉爽的氛围中放松身心。抵达巴莱斯特兰德后,我们换了一艘较小的船继续前往峡湾直到冰川。下半程的景色更加迷人,更安静,更深的水色,神秘的空间,营造出远离人类世界,更接近天堂的感觉。是的,我们越来越接近欧洲大陆 – 约瑟达尔冰川最大的冰川!而且它是一个可爱的心形。到达冰川前,导游带我们乘坐公共汽车前往冰川博物馆。播放了关于冰川形成和历史的电影,以及博物馆展出的一些有趣的文化和科学故事。当地人有时攀登冰川,挑战自己并观察雪崩,这也吸引了全世界挑战者前来,以防冰川在未来的某一天消失。
世界上竟然有这样一个美丽而神秘的地方!
