hi everyone back home. we are now in oslo norway. i would post pics, but grandpa and jaime are both out of memory, hundreds of pics from the fjords, we will post them when we can. even my cell phone is out of battery, so i cannot even take a new picture! norway is stunning. we have had a whirlwind trip. no time to breath. it has been rainy in oslo, but bergen was better. we went on a train trip up high in the mountains, then a boat ride,tour of the fjords for two hours, and a beautiful charter ride through very steep 20 percent grade, winding roads in the mountains, then back on a train to bergen. we had some time in cute little towns. bergen is one of the most beautiful cities i have seen. really cute. we have met people from all around the world and they all say this is the most expensive city they have ever been in, so we are glad to have the opportunity to visit for only 5 days. we would go broke. beer is around 10 dollars a glass, mc donalds is around 15 dollars for a meal! thank god for the free breakfast, we fill up there. well, three of us will return stateside tomorrow, and one is on to egypt, after a last minute scare for red tape, sam is on her way to muc. (airport code, get used to it.)
well, more to follow. picture too. on line time is expensive too, so no proof reading and the key board is a little strange, hope i communicated well enough. got to go. clock is running. love to all.
