Be sure to bring with you a parent permission form for this time travel field trip. We will begin to trek accross Scandinavia. Our mission is to find ways that the vikings helped this culture. YES ...

Get those sources out students! Blog me as fast as you can. I need to know how to help the villagers prepare. We have been to the castle, but many want to go home to check on their livestock. What should I tell them? Please work in your small groups and brainstorm ideas to propose plans for their self defense. You will need to use your creativity! Each group leader needs to blog me with their proposals as soon as possible!

When we got there I went with the other exchange students to dinner. We had pizza. Then I went and put my bags in my cabin. Then all the exchange students ...

So after a night consisting of more welcome drinks at both Toby's and at the Finse 1222 bar, we went to bed to rest-up as we had a big day of glacier climbing ahead. The following day we woke up bright and not-too-early, headed for a great breakfast and got ready for our ...

... that she must be paid well for the wind is strong and water cold. Even at our platform some 200m away it was chilly. I wagered she must had a dry suit (for diving) underneath her red dress to keep warm. It was a totally surreal scene. The train chooed us back on board and made it's way through the mountains once more. It finally reached the end of the line at a small station. Some passengers disembarked here while new ones came on board ...

In October of 2003, I was invited to speak at the CUG Tech Forum 2003 in Geilo (pronounced "yeah-low"), Norway. This was my first trip to Norway. Just getting to Geilo was a long trip. Holli drove me to the subway. Subway to DC airport. DC to Newark. Newark to Amsterdam. Amsterdam to Olso. Train from airport to downtown. Bus from downtown to Geilo. All in about 30 hours.
