... I have ever seen! It was freezing cold in there and I only felt colder when we went outside again into the wind. It was an awful day, temperature wise, and we were dressed lightly for some unknown reason. I guess we hoped that the day would warm up, which it did finally at about 4pm. We found a park that was decorated with the busts of famous people, mostly composers, and we ate lunch on a bench in the sun which peeked out of the clouds only ...

It was surprisingly mild when we arrived at Gardemoen (airport) on this morning. None of us slept much on the plane. It is always surreal setting down into a new country. Our first plan is to record video for our TV channel, but since we were not allowed to import our equipment we need to buy it all in Oslo. Too tired today. We'll keep you up-to-date. http://www.norwaytraveltv.tv/

... gifts and take photographs with her and to chat. Some people had made amazing gifts. Obviously Lene is used to it now, but it was quite a crowd all gathered round her taking photographs and wanting to speak with her, and she managed it well and the fans were respectful. She smiled and joked for a full half hour at least and it didnt feel like she was in a hurry to leave at all. It was really quite at amazing night and was much more awesome that I imagined it ...

In the middle of March the Rotary here in Norway arranged for the exchange students to get together for a weekend in Oslo. This is a very famous weekend in Norway because of the Holmenkollen ski jumping. On Thursday afternoon my host parents drove me into Oslo to the family I would be staying with for the weekend. All the exchange students stayed in houses in the Oslo area. One of the girls from Australia, Emily, stayed in the ...

Hi everyone, I hope everyone had a merry Christmas and a happy New Year's Eve. Our last day of school was Thursday, the 21st. That night we had a traditional Norwegian dinner at Tone's mom's house. They only eat it around Christmas. It is a soup with meat in it, but you also put flatbrød in it. Flatbrød is a very thin cracker kind of thing. It was pretty good. Here in Scandinavia they have a special kind of alcohol ...

Sorry, I haven't written in a long time, but my computer has been broken. So the weekend after Thanksgiving my family kind of celebrated Thanksgiving. We had turkey, mashed potatoes, corn, and my pumpkin pie. But we also had smålahova. Smålahova is the head of a sheep. It is a customary food in Western Norway. It tasted good, but it looked really gross. I felt really bad for the sheep. It was a nice dinner. The next day I ...

Hi everyone! In the beginning of November I had my first band concert here in Norway. We had two in one weekend. They were fun especially since some of my friends are in band. My host family came to see my concert and they said it was really good. Then last week I got really sick. On Teusday morning I past out in the bathroom. That was a first for me. It was a very strange feeling. So I went to the doctor and he told me I had a ...

On Saturday first I went to Silje and Sondre's gymnastic competition. Although neither of their teams won, Silje got the most individual points. That means she was the best there. She is really good. I love watching her. Then we picked up my friend Bree from the train station. She is the one from California. She lives about an hour away, so I invited her to my party. I had 7 of my friends over. Only one of my friends couldn't come. I dressed up as Hitler. I was just going ...

On Wednesday I went to a saxophone practice. It is a small ensemble. They gave me the first parts which are really hard so I have to practice a lot. On Thursday for gym we went into the forest and used a compass to find several posts. I wasn't feeling great on Wednesday, and during gym I started feeling sick. The rest of Thursday was fine. On Friday ...
