Well, it looks so calming, right? But in fact, the port in Gudvangen is pretty busy. Numerous cruise ships and ferries are coming in and out. We got there by bus and had to catch our ferry to Flam. While my wife was nervously waiting for the ferry with kids I was sneaking around with a camera and almost missed our ship. Well, it wasn't so quiet after all ;)
