Hurtigruten; Wednesday, 29 July, 2015

Breakfast whilst in Trondheim and the highlight of the morning was watching a passenger miss the boat, only for the captain to relent and pull back in to let him on. The fact that he'd already delayed two tours earlier in the week by being late out to them was clearly a point with many other passengers who could be heard muttering that perhaps he should have been left on the quayside as a punishment (also it would be possible to get to Kristiansund, the next stop, well before the ship made it due to the shape of the coastline)

A long sail up the Trondheimsfjorden and then around the coast, during which lunch was served and then into Kristiansund late afternoon.

With a large number of passengers having disembarked at Trondheim and three more coach loads off on an overland tour to Molde the ship was very empty during the last dinner.

At Molde there was time for people to have a last stretch of their legs before Bergen as all the remaining stops would only be a few minutes, and for those on the overland tour to re-join the ship. It also appeared to be a major place for people to take their cars off of the ship.

A quick nightcap watching the mountains disappear into the murk of drizzle and mist and then to bed for the last time on-board.
