Next up on our travel list: Poland, Stockholm, and southern Norway. We took three weeks traveling by train, plane, and boat to see some more places that were new to us. In Poland, we saw Wroclaw, Krakow, and Gdansk plus a somber day-trip to the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camps. We took the short hop to Stockholm mainly to catch Elton John in the last city of his farewell tour. After that, a short flight took us to Oslo where we then took trains, boat and bus to see fjords and waterfalls on the way to Bergen. The weather did not always cooperate for good photos, but we saw a lot of gorgeous scenery and fabulous architecture and we had a wonderful time.
