    Hey there! What an amazing adventure you had at the Bricksdale Glacier in Olden, Norway! The scenic views were breathtaking, and those Norwegian horses were just gorgeous.
    The hike to the glacier looked challenging but totally worth it. Thanks for taking us along on your journey. Looking forward to more amazing content from your channel. Cheers!

    What a beautiful hike! We've been fortunate enough to see a few glaciers in our life and we're always amazed by them. The creaking sounds they make take a little bit of time to get used to though. We enjoyed the 360 camera perspective, we've looked into them before but we may need to look again. It really added a lot to your video! Thanks for sharing your trip with us 🙂 - Andrew, Candice, and Riley 🐾

    • @CruiseLife22
      @CruiseLife22  16 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      There is an area by the waterfall that has steep steps but there is a handrail. This could be tricky with kids but you could take the road option. Alternatively, book a trolley car to get up there in plenty of time but pre book your trolley car as soon as possible! Also, when on a cruise excursion you are tight for time and especially with little ones. It took us about 45 minutes up and 40 minutes back. I'm sure you will be amazed to see this place.
