17. mai







Another week has seen two days gone already, and it is 11 days left until we're on a flight to Crete looking forward to two weeks of island hopping. Would be nice if time went slightly quicker if you ask me...

The weekend just gone we celebrated 17th May. For the ones that have managed to avoid hearing about this day, it's Norway's constitution day. The constitution was signed 17th May 1814. The day is celebrated with children parades, Russ (not the Russ you know, but the ones about to finish school!) running about and generally being Norwegian whilst waving our flag.


We had champagne breakfast for Russ, Mo and two others at our house, before we left the house to join the rest of Norway in the streets of Oslo. Unfortunately it was a very cold day, with the thermometer showing +1 degrees in the morning. Brrrr! After walking around the streets watching people in Bunad (Norwegian national dresses) and eating icecream, we went back to ours for more cake and champagne. Later on we invaded Kaia's flat, and had dinner there. BBQ was kinda out of the question as it was freezing!


Monday nigh we had a girls night again, with only three of us this time. It was a nice quiet night with a lot of chatting :)
