MS Trollfjord Departure from Bergen

Some claim that it always rains in Bergen. It's just almost right. It at least rains slightly in 242 of the year's 365 days,- from September to March it’s raining between 15 and 21 days per month. Our day in bergen were one of these 'wet days'. Did visit the major sights including Bryggen Wharf (UNESCO Heritage Site). Watched MS Trollfjord arriving into Bergen at 2:30 pm. 
We did go to the terminal when check-in started at 4:00 pm - already a very long queue. Did queue for an hour. We had booked a mini suite. Once on the ship a special waiting room at deck 9 with snacks and drinks for suite guests. 
Cabins were ready at 6:00 pm. Open seating for dinner buffet from 6:00 to 9:00 pm. Long queue for the restaurant until 8:30 pm - when we finally got a table the plates at the buffet were almost empty and staff did start to clan the buffet. Managed to get some smoked salmon, herrings and cheese - not the best start of the cruise. 
Departure at 10:00 pm - nice views of the sail away from the upper deck.
