Rica Saga Sarpsborg

It was on the island called Nord-koster me and my wife used to stay when we were younger. We came here 17 summers in row from our children were small.<br>Today we should go from Ekenäs to the northern island and take the cable ferry that runs between the two islands. It is no more than an hour to walk and it was a great trip.<br><br>

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.

... to land at a strange spot to beg shelter for the night; and yet in this very place, where I first touched Norwegian soil, I had the pleasure of meeting with an old friend. "Now," said captain J___, "I am very glad to see you here, and I can give you some English cookery tonight - some beefsteaks." And so he did. If any of my countrymen have ever had such "roughing it" as I had just passed through, they can imagine what a treat to beefsteaks were, after sour rye bread and rancid ...

... inquired for stamps: and I cannot tell what stamps to give him unless I know where the he wishes to write to some place here in Sweden, or to one in a foreign land." "Ah - please excuse me.

So it flashed across him, that there was a new use discovered the stamps, and he instantly selected a ...

Ahh, this website can not find Halden automaticly. Then, how can I find it? It should thank the God because there was no train from Oslo to Malmo directly on that day. Only a train to Halden. After that, a train would pass by Halden to Malmo. Since we knew Oslo well, we decided to have a look at Halden. Halden is the point which must be taken from Oslo to Sweden. There is a fort called Fredriksten where Sweden King Karl VII was killed ...

... kjøre til Sandefjorde, for så å ta ferga derfra til Strømstad i Sverige. Vi spiste middag i Varberg ettefulgt av den ganske så lang reise gjennom Sverige. Når vi ankom København i Danmark på kvelden var det på tide med en ny båt. Denne skulle ta oss med til Polen, og på den skulle vi overnatte. Fikk kveldsmat ombord.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
