Hi guys,

Well we have made it into Norway and my god it is expensive!!!.
We have visited Oslo which is a lovely city which feels no bigger then Beverley (bit bigger then Oadby).
Caught a ferry across the bay and saw some old long boats (Viking long boats no less - so scott informs me) and went to see a park full of scuptures. They were very interesting.......................all naked people in funny positions!?!.

Headed across norway south of a national park and that is when the moutains started. We started seeing a little snow here and there and then got closer and closer. Although there is still lots on the very tops of the highest mountains it is not all that cold. Seen some great views. Camped in a layby next to a Fjord last night. Sat on a rock and watched the sun go down over the mountians. It is strange that it never gets really dark here but we are getting use to it.

Again the views today have been great but like I say it is just so expensive - even the bus to and from the camp site today nearly blew our budget. I guess we will be heading up a little further then cutting Norway short and getting over to Finland.

Hope you are all well. Keep the updates coming.

Caroline (Fiona) and Scott
