Advantages: A fun and educational place to visit Disadvantages: Perhaps not for younger children, can get crowded
What do you do on a rainy day in a city renowned for bad weather and that is surrounded by water? You go to the aquarium of course! As if you hadn?t seen enough water!
Bergen Aquarium has a reputation of being one of the finest in Europe and while I haven?t been to many, I can see why Bergen?s has this good reputation.
The aquarium is situated about 1.6 Kilometres from the fish market, which in tourist terms is the heart of the city. It stands at the end of the Nordnes peninsular and you can find it quite easily by walking as far as you can before you end up in the fjord. When you fall in you know you have gone too far. I was going to say ?when you get wet? but as it rains virtually all the time in Bergen, this is not helpful. If you don?t want to walk you can take a bus, alternatively you can take a ferry from the fish market ...
Advantages: Funny Teenagers in Europe Disadvantages: Crude, rude humour
Euro Trip is one of those teenage movies that actually can?t help but make you laugh. It?s of a similar humour to American Pie, rude, crude and a little wrong but actually a very well made movie and in my opinion very funny.
Euro Trip was released in 2004 . It stars your usual bunch of teenage actors that have swamped Hollywood in recent years. Some have gone on to make more of their careers, some haven?t done very much at all. The girl in this movie who goes to Europe is Michelle Trachtenberg and she has been in Buffy and gone on to do quite well.
The basic plot of this movie tells the story of Scott Thomas and his three friend?s travels across Europe in search of his pen pal Mieke. He discovers he has feelings for her after he is unceremoniesly dumped by his college girlfriend. In quite funny scenes from the beginning ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Euro Trip (DVD)
Advantages: Beautiful, historic, friendlyand very different. Disadvantages: Wet in Summer, Cold in Winter.
Not the first place you?d think of going for a short break in November; Bergen. Not the VERY first anyway.
Actually, given the trouble you?d have getting to Ulan Bator in time for tea and sandwiches, Bergen may even come out quite close to last for many folk.
That said, I?ve never been one for going with the norm, or the flow, if Norm?s feeling out of sorts, so it was off to Bergen we did go.
The reasons for the trip are another story, and are revealed in another op. (Life?s Only As Good As Your Next Ship, if you?re interested) so I won?t go into detail here. Let it suffice to say that the notion was for my daughter Emma and I to take a short (and hopefully educational) trip together. So we did, and Bergen was where we were headed.
We left Newcastle basking in an unseasonably warm 18°C, with happy Magpie fans drifting in ...
