With my geography class we took a short day trip to an island group a little northwest of Bergen called Ã?ygarden. On a low tide day, there is around 500 islands- or so they say. Our teacher said we visited around 15-20 on this particular trip and we had a grand old time, more or less. It was nice, and VERY organized, as our teacher had times down to the minute, from eating to museum visits to picture taking time.
Among the highlights of the day was when we took the ferry out to an island with no more than 20 inhabitants-20!!! It was kind of unreal to think that there are places that have that few people living there. I mean, there were probably more houses on the island than people! There is one student and they make the ferry ride every day to go to class, even though there is a schoolhouse on the island. At the museum we visited, I fell asleep while watching a video, and really enjoyed my lunch that I packed :b. Other than that, we spent a lot of time in the bus just looking at stuff and made a couple little stops to walk around a bit.
