Norway was fantastic. Cold. Expensive. Beautiful. The people were among the nicest (and prettiest) that I've ever met. Day 1 Duffel bag is packed. We walk to central station which gives us a good idea of how (not) fun it will be to walk around carrying all your things with you and then take the train to Schiphol airport. We get to our gate where a whopping 2 people are. Apparently Norway is not ... Read Full Entry

Now I'm finishing up my senior year of school and looking to put off joining the real world for as long as possible. I made a promise to myself that I would travel before I got a salary.

One of my favorite pictures from the trip.

I don't know whats happening...

Or why. The best I can figure is that the evil magician ringleader has turned a person into a penguin and has bewitched them to dance and make bubbles for all eternity.

Norwegian dessert

Basically bread, butter, and cinnamon. Mmmmmm. Delicious.

wonderful!
Ahhh Lauren that was great! How amazing! I personally enjoyed the tables at your hostel. And the statues. Don't freeze over there!! And save some stories for when you come back and we get to have sleep overs!~ I think I found a cat . . . I have to go back Friday to get it. It is adorable and feisty- just the way I like them. ??

Loved your travelogue of Norway. Your descriptions of Norway's beauty have piqued my interest in travelling there one day. By the way, why did you stay the entire 2 1/2 hours for the Mass?
