This morning we disembarked in Eidfjord, a tiny town situated on the Hardangerfjord, Norway's second longest fjord and one of the deepest and most spectacular. Depths can reach more than 400 meters.

Tom, the boys, and I set off on a three-hour kayaking expedition, an experience I highly suggest should you find yourself in this part of the country.

The views are spectacular and the air and water so clean, crisp, and pure. The skies are ever-changing, a feature that enhances the beauty in dramatic ways.
