Norwegian West coast Tour 2015

I can only Double this and say thanks for this really Wunderfull Trip over the week which will Be one of the ever best Tours at all. So no question, if you ever plan a further norwegian Tour, we will Be glad to join

Funny enough, after about 3 Hrs driving towards Trondheim, Manuela tells me that Christer and Emilia probably came around the Bend on their way to north and........ There they are and are just coming from the right

Arriving in Trondheim, we found our self in middle of the American Car Meeting celebrating their 40 year Meeting.
So today we spend some Hrs on their meeting watching beautiful Cars over and over, we had to park our british Made a Little beside, but the Place filled such, that we where soon part of the Meeting, but we had to leave around noon to get on Then wie had to make sure, we will not miss the Astronaut Academy
So I was Handed out the Official Astronaut Certificate issued by the norwegian...... "Flaklypa Astronaut Academic of Alvdal" Right

I would like to thank all participants for making this a great tour where we had an excellent time together with our friends.
Great driving experience and nice views on the route as well as decent weather, possibly we will plan a new tour in the future but for now we need enjoy the memories.
When driving up these small winding roads only seeing 8ers in front of me I fully understood what the 8er does best is being a grand tourer bringing people together.
While the 8er was a solitary creature it now appears in a heard, guess BMW never expected that

Please share pictures , I will add some of mine soon.

Thanks to all
Terje

Some pictures coming, but I see there is already a lot posted on facebook.

First Hotel in Voss , Fleishers

Myself sitting on the tip enjoying the view, or being a bit scared looking down at Geiranger , this place is called Flydalsjuvet.

While waiting for the Aston before going down Trollstigen.

Girls having a good time.

Fish is fish , size do not matter.

Wet people as waves and wind hit us.

We just arrived at home after this magnificent week and would like to thank all of you for the wonderful days.
Thanks to everyone who was involved in the organisation of this event. It was one of the best 8 Meetings ever.
I will sort trough my images in the next days and put some up here. (first a lot of tough... )

Cheers
Lilly & Steve

Den Bildern nach war es bestimmt wunderschön. Schade, dass man nicht überall sein kann.
Aber die Temperatur war bei uns ein wenig höher.

Back in my home(-office), too, and very very happy to have participated this exciting tour. Warmest Thankyou for all who have organized this top event.
And what has been absolutely new?
When Norwegians command "Engine must start at 08:00 a.m.", then ... they go and 08:03 the parking is empty.

Skol: Armin with Lucia

PS: Remarkable classical hotels all, but best is "Kvikne's" in Balestrand, a dream.

we only did catch and release. Heiko hat enige AHK teile fur sie.

Arrived home yesterday evening. After 1 week in Norway, 140kph on the autobahn feels like the speed of sound!

WoW! What a great tour! It feels strange, not to be driving the 8 on this time of the day... It was a wonderful experience. Laughed a lot, very good hotels and the food...well, I guess I gained some kilos!

Thanks for the organization! You made a very very good trip. What a beautiful country!

Keep the photos coming, I am working on the film now!

One of the coolest 8er vids I've ever seen! THX for sharing!

P.S.: Armin without an Alpina tie? I see, that this video is a fake @ all!

Fantastic emotional & professional video!!! Many thanks to you for producing & sharing it.

CheeriooooH: Armin with Lucia

@ Harry:
Not a fake; two ties always on board, but irregulary mode of use.

@ Martin:
Sorry, due to my age, I didn't understand how to manage the ftp. Where to copy into the Windows Explorer?

Wonderful video. Seems it has been a fantastic trip. A shame we could not attend.
Cheers Heinz

Great Video Tom! Thanks for filming all the time and for the super editing!

Cheers
Steve

I agree with 8Harry8!
Perhaps the coolest Video I've ever seen from an 8 series event.
Seems it was an awesome trip!

Doesn't seem to work for me either. Windows Explorer is the window that opens when you click on 'My Computer' or when you 'explore' (example: C:\my documents\) your files on your computer. If I use the link, the link automatically opens in my webbrowser.

Most easy to do is this
Download Cyberduck here: https://cyberduck.io/ (Windows and/or Mac).
Install the program (You do not have to install 'Bonjour' when asked for it).
Open Cyberduck

Click on "Open Connection" (Your language could be set to German automatically. If not, go to Edit>Preferences>Language).

Copy this information to the pop-up:
Server: https://www.8er.org
Port: 21 (I guess this is already filled in)
Username: admin_124
Password: h1Hirxs84Y3X3bR6

NB: The blue URL you see in this screenshot is automatically filled in by Cyberduck.

Click 'Connect'

Click 'Continue'

Now you will see these folders. It is as easy as your normal Windows Explorer. Drag and drop your files into the window and that is it.
If you right-click with your mouse, you can easily make a new folder and drag your photos in this folder.
Depending on your internet connection, it may take a while to download/upload all pictures.

This might seem difficult, but it is only 5 minutes of work
