The google map route shown at about 3:25 is a bit strange. It's easier to walk east to the cinema. From there you can see the theatre. From there you can see the market square, and from there you can turn left and walk past the statues and you're down at the fish market. Google's route isn't nearly as nice. The funicular gets really crowded on cruise days. It functions as public transport for the people living up in the hills, so they don't have to zig-zag for an hour just to walk home. When a large (or more) cruise ship docks, and a lot of people want to try it, the lines can get absurdly long, and there's a limited capacity. If you want to take it, I suggest getting there early. An alternative is Ulriksbanen, which takes you up Mt. Ulrik, a taller mountain. There's no friendly goats to pet, but the views are even better.

Well, the line was one reason I decided to try climbing. I enjoy getting lost a bit, so I didn't mind. Regardless, the streets were so interesting, it made for a fun, if draining, walk. Noted on your suggestions, I may well be back. I hope so, it's one of my favorite cities in Europe!
