Norway knows how to party! We ended our expedition in Bergen and stepped right into Constitution Day. This celebration of Norway’s independence from Denmark in 1814 brings out national pride of the people as well as their hardy spirt of fun - in a way that was pretty darn impressive. Most women were in their national dress - which they are given at age 14 and it is meant to last their whole lifetime given the $7K+ cost. The skirts wisely have an expandable waist band. Men have to wait until they are older for this gift from their family.
Being all dressed up doesn’t stop anyone from enjoying the party. After an hour long parade at 10 AM they are still up for the good times at 10 PM and way beyond that as the sun doesn’t set until after 11 PM.

Today we had our first polar bear sighting. It was a “binocular” sighting as the bear was far away but the ship’s crew had it on a camera so we could follow along. We are onboard the Lindblad National Geographic Resolution. Any sighting of the these amazing marine mammals in the wild is always a thrilling thing no matter how close or far away they are.
