We’re back

We finally arrived last night from our latest trip to Norway. What a great trip. We got to spend most of the time with the family, and see now places. We stayed near the Atlantic Ocean, and for the first time I was really able to see how the tide comes in and out. One [...]

Our Travels this summer

We’ve finally gotten most of the little things taken care of for our trip this summer. We’ll be going to Norway again to see the grandkids. The nice part of this trip is that the kids will be going with us. It’s going to be a lot of fun. We are going to leave their [...]

Free Entrance?

I just read an article in the news that says the Dept. of Interior is going to have free access to the national parks on three weekends this summer. My question is why are we paying for this in the first place? Oh, it’s to clean up the mess that people leave. I find this [...]

In my journey to find things to see and do when we go up to Norway, I found a site that is quite amazing! It’s a webcam setup to watch a sea eagle nest in Norway. They don’t tell the location of the nest of course, which I understand. The best part of it right [...]

Good Decisions..

We started planning our trip up to Norway this summer. So far everything is working like we want it to. We now have our reservations for a cabin up at Geiranger Fjord. I spent one evening looking at the hotels in the area, and while staying for one night or two wouldn’t be too bad, [...]

Decisions, decisions..

Well, I took the plunge this weekend and bought our tickets for our trip to Norway this summer. We are really looking forward to it. I tried all sorts of ideas as far as driving, or different ferry trips and none of them were really any better than the regular trip from Kiel to Gothenburg. [...]
