Wow, I'm Behind!

Ok I know it's a theme but I always seem to catch up eventually.

So from where I left off, Camilla and I took an overnight Cruise from Copenhagen to Oslo.

Once on board we quickly got our priorities in order and to the top of the boat to set sail. To commemorate the experience we bought drinks as blue as the sea!


I spilled some and couldn't bare to have it go to waste. What can I say? I'm resourceful.


After returning to Oslo, we went by train to Nordic Nowhere to visit Camilla's sister, Berit, and to also get some training done for our performances later.

Our first evening in town was commemorated by being a proud supporter of Jonas, Berit's oldest child.

Alva, Berit's little girl, had more fun playing in the rain than watching the game.


Once in Koppang, Berit opened up the school gym that she teaches at to let us start training. While training there we also did a short class for a few of the students.


Here is Jonas and Camilla.




We finally coaxed Berit into giving it a try.


Berit lives on a farm in Norway and was so generous to me. She let Camilla and I stay in a little house that used to be used as a food storage way back when.





And these are views from my window.



It is common for older houses in Norway to have grass on top. They were built this way as added insulation from the very cold winters.


This is me saying bye to Berit as we leave Koppand and head back to Oslo.


While in Oslo, we stayed with Camilla's great friends Marchus and Aliss. Here they are in an intimate husband and wife moment.


We took a train to Trondheim. Saw the city....


and it's gorgeous Gothic cathedral.


From there we took an overnight train to Bodo. Since Bodo is above the Arctic Circle we were able to see the sun set several times throughout the train ride. After we finally reached the Arctic Circle it would be daylight for Will until I would fly to London on July 16th, fourteen days later.
