Jewel of the Seas arrived at our next-to-last Norwegian destination on 29 June 2022. Continuing today and running through 29 December I present to you the port city of Haugesund in Western Norway. During this time I’m going to once again get photo-centric on you, as we traveled Haugesund by foot on our own. The title of each Monday and Wednesday article in this series will give you an idea of what area is being presented. The series runs as follows:
