... quarter. It is a small town here, but holds a nice tourist free feel to it.
We are now making the most of having the freedom to roam as in 3 hours, we will embark on a 28 hour journey up to Tromsø in the Arctic Circle.

P.s. Many thanks to all that are reading our blog, and remember that you can leave comments.

... to be a tad spartan in terms of places to lay out comestics or shaving gear. The shower takes some navigation as it is tiny, but extremely functional. The food service is splendid with open buffet in the morning and lunch while dinner is a set menu. Expect to find salmon, cod, herring, various cutfisk, reindeer, surloin, crab and other fine offerings placed before the willing diner. If a passenger accepts "the offer" and pays 209 NOK upfront, the ...

Trondheim polozone jest w odleglosci niecalych 500km od Oslo - a z uwagi na predkosc jechalismy tu caly dzien (Oh my God!!!). Po drodze zawitalismy do Lillehammer - skocznia okazala sie niewielka atrakcja przy zjezdzie bobslejem, na ktory zdecydowali sie Bob i Monika B. - szacuneczek. Piekne widoki gorskie po drodze i po 21:00 jestesmy na miejscu. Nocny spacer po Trondheim - urocze, nabrzezne miasteczko. Glowne zwiedzanie przed poludniem w poniedzialek. Poniewaz hostel ...

... operation except that the snow was so thick that it covered these structures. The snow had been compressed and frozen so that all the steps were covered by ice, making them nigh impossible to use. Everyone devised their own strategies for traversing these structures, whether it be stepping off of the structures into the deep snow, clinging desperately to the handrails or just using the stairs as slides. Line four was the final and closest to the ground line. Trees and other ...

... consists of a German, a Peruvian, an American, an Irish guy, two Kurdish and one Nepalese man. Now where else will you find a Thanksgiving table like that. My camera is totally broken down now, so I'll be buying a new one this Monday when I get back from Trondheim. They have some pretty good Canon's in town with a 4 gig card. Looking forward to my new life I'll be creating at George Fox. It gets ...

... home from Bergen to Newcastle and I was left to find a way to continue. Gettijg the train meant back tracking to Oslo and even that wouldnt get me the whole way there so I went to the port and was told that there was a boat leaving in a couple of hours, managed to get a good last minute price and a cabin. The boat went the whole way up the coast, past the arctic circle, this was because due to the Golf stream the water stayed ...

... to imagine how these people are having to adjust to such a different environment from where they've come. The town of Geilo, Norway is a ski resort town like Aspen or Vail, Colorado. Why the Norweigia government chose this place for them is a bit beyond me. There is about two - three feet of snow outside. That's quite a change from the tropics of Thailand. Our train for Oslo leaves at 10:58 am so we will have some of the morning to talk and have a Bible Study.

... up every last damn summer ray. Can't blame em though. We finally got a six bed dorm room, but not shared so we ended up paying around 180.00 for one night! In a beat up hostel with grafitti on the walls, shared ****** bathroom and no working urinal (It all gets back to the toilets, I find, with this backpacking. It seems the holiday thus far is being driven more by bowels than any sort of planning!). Only thing it was ...

... als da 60 Studenten ankammen und ins Wasser wollten. Der See war dann doch ziemlich kalt - aber ich war ganz tapfer. Hatte auch was Gutes, als ich wieder rauskam war mir richtig warm. Dann ging es weiter ca 20 min zum zweiten See. Die Herausforderung, welche Überraschung, schwimmen bis zur Badeinsel und zurück. Hier schon einfacher, weil fein warm. Dann ...

... owned papers, it also has web TV and radio broadcasts. It was incredible. Hourly news updates on the latest local news and live radio! We also found out that paper is entirely supported on the adds. The paper is probably the thickest paper I have ever seen. (Think Seattle Times Sunday paper doubled) After lunch, we were given a tour. We actually met the news guy that we had seen on the web, went inside the radio station and TV station. We also met a lot of the ...
