We had a leisurely breakfast at the Thon Orion Hotel and checkout was at noon, so we rugged up and went for a walk around the fortress just next to the hotel. Some wonderful views from the top of the hill.
Our luggage check-in for the Hurtigruten cruise on MS Nordnorge was from 1.00pm, so we checked out and got a taxi to the ferry terminal where we eventually unloaded our luggage. But we couldn't board until after 3.00, so we had a lot of time to kill. We wandered around the streets of Bergen in quite miserable weather, grabbed coffee, then finally boarded around 4.00pm. 
We're on level 6, in an Arctic Superior room, and although small, It's quite comfortable and has everything we need.
Dinner was a buffet with fish, fish and more fish - baked, grilled, raw, pickled, every which way! There was plenty of everything else, too. Delicious! A great introduction to our cruise through the Norwegian Fjords.
