Quality Leangkollen Asker

Hello friends, On popular demand here is a little report on the wonderful Nordic wedding of Dominic and Beate, now known as the Tilleys of Dortmund. This is actually my first blog. I think that a blog must be a good way to share this great souvenir. These days I do not go to weddings as much as I used to, but my last wedding before this one was a quite incredible "factory ...

... first crossed the North West Passage. Roald Amunsen captained and there was a sculpture of him - he has a great brow [again, you'll have to wait for me to upload a photo!]. Then off to the Vigeland sculpture park - I don't know much about the artist or the symbolism but there were loads of nude figures in all sorts of configurations (Sylvia - including hair doing ...

... burning all those calories in the shower! I said goodbye to Ian and Kylie, as they were leaving today - very nice but very overly-chatty couple. I wonder what other travelers say about me? "Gives good travel tips but gets REALLY creepy with the whole Spanish senorita fetish ..." Off to the harbour for the ferry to Bydgoy, where I would be visiting a number of museums today. I was killing a bit of time - I purchased the Oslo card ...

... Luckily its a conversation i don't mind having one bit. The next day started much the same as the last, the rain spitting in the morning but within an hour or two it starts to bucket down. I was able to gauge from the conversations the night before that this was going to be the toughest day for me and it started straight from the off. The climb out of Kinlochleven passing the pipelines that bring water down from the blackwater reservoir was very steep and the local road ...

On April 3, most of our entourage got into downtown Oslo, some looking at shops (the Lady Nighthawks) and some heading out to the Vigeland sculpture park (the chaperones). Some stayed in Asker, relaxing and watching big screen tv, getting ready for a big game against the best team of this age group in Norway (the Nighthawks boys). Oslo is beautifully situated on rolling hills surrounding the end of a long fjord, a mix of 200-year-old buildings and ...

On the run, so this will be short. Speaking of running, we usually are. Our entourage is scattered all over Asker, and host parents are gladly driving us to a meeting place (usually the local pizza joint called Dollar Dimple) or the sports complex in Asker. Asker is high-end suburb, beautiful rolling hills, but covers quite a distance. A couple of our homes are actually outside of Asker. But we gather up more or less on time, and the big ...

... or so. I was only there waiting for mel to get off work at 20:00 (8pm) anyways I had a good time. The two men got into a norweigan argument and i didnt know what was going on but apparently they were fighting over who could by me a drink.. It was a little werid at the time but as Anne said they are always like that soo i dont pay much mind to it. Tomorrow I am off to see more of the city!! And will write more then...

... vi med Ving. Det blir bare spekulasjoner på hvorfor påfølgende oppstår. MyTravel har bestemt at alle som reiser med Star Tour skal få bli med flyet. Da kommer første jubel. "Jess", "Supert", "Oooh". De heldige glemmer fort at det finnes like mange uheldige. Det står nesten stemple "L" i pannene våre. "L" betyr jo som sagt "Loser" på godt norsk. Neste gladmelding er at 100 av oss fra Ving skal få bli med. Det blir en spent stemning. Hvem skal få bli med? Skal dem trekke ...

... led to another and didn't work out quite the way we planned (though my 35 page political science capstone research paper on conflict interventions in Kosovo did turn out pretty well). So upon my return to PLU in January, Claudia raised the idea of applying for a student-faculty research grant to see if we could get some funding to continue this project. PLU is wonderful in terms of providing opportunities and funding for student-faculty ...
