Undredal, Aurlandsfjord, Norway
My
dad is really into geneology and he has traced the Bragg name back
several hundred years to Norway. Knowing for some time that I wanted to
go to visit the land of my forefathers, I decided it would be
interesting to visit it right around the time of summer solstice since
Scandinavia is known as the "land of the midnight sun." So I went during that time but never actually got to see midnight sun because we weren't
far enough north. But, the sun did set around 11:00 pm and would rise
again about 3:00 am. Because of this, the sky never got pitch black at
night but just looked like dusk. The town of Undredal was very briefly seen while riding in a boat through the Aurlandsfjord.
Norway is known for their fjords and for good reason. They make for a
strikingly beautiful backdrop with deep waters and lush mountains. |
