Stavanger

The first apartment of the area. A little small compared to the ones in the back.

When we arrived in Stavanger there was a beach volleyball tournament in the port.  From the top of the ship you could see part of the court and the action.  At the time I watched twoo brazilian guys were playing.  I do not remember against whom.

We went to several interesting places, there is a reconstructed iron age farm in Ullandhaug.  It consists of three wooden buildings with roofs made of peat and bark. The exterior walls were covered with stones to keep out the cold. 

We also went to a place where a monument to the battle of Hafrsfjord  that lead to Norway's unification is located.  The monument is three enormous bronze swords planted in the solid rock. The swords can be found at Møllebukta which is a bay area on the southern shore of Hafrsfjord. Where the battle took place in the year 872. 

Strolling throug the city, we  found a flag of Puerto Rico in one of the buildings.
