Americans in Norway...

-
There are indeed MANY of us here (Americans in Norway) ...

Just had lunch with another really nice American blogger here in my area.... kind of like a blind date... it went well I think....

Talked to Corinne over at Northern Natterings we are FOR SURE going to plan a get together over the summer...for all of our fellow bloggers & expats alike.... We would like to plan something while Kelli from Mads & Kelli is in town... but I'm not sure I will be back from our
TI PI -Tastic trip through Europe... if I'm not, Corrine PROMISED we would have another party in August... I'm also up for hosting a get together in the fantastic resort town of FREDRIKSTAD.... Who is in? (No weirdos - PLEASE)

Holly... There wasn't a link to your email address... if you pop back here, email me... Love to shoot the B.S. with ya...

I'm beginning to feel special, being the ONLY American blogger in all of Bergen and all....

I'd totally come if I could. And you know I'm weird so I would have cranked it up the extra notch too.
Shame.

Hey girl, unlikely to make Fredrikstad, very kind of you though! Trying to get RennyBA to organise an Oslo event in August (I think he is sort of the spiritual leader of Norwegian (non-expat) bloggers)! Help me out if you can! BBx.

Hei! I love reading your blog.. yes there are many Americans popping up around Norway. This is my 4th time to Norway in a little over a year. At the moment I'm spending the summer here with my fiance (who is Norwegian). I commute from Mysen to Oslo ever week day for Norwegian classes with the ISS this summer. I'm hoping to move here next year and get married if all goes well. All this customs/passport/immigration stuff is confusing and sometimes annoying. I have a blog about my journeys to and from Norway that I've started to revive. Hopefully it will become more interesting or humorous to those that venture there. http://lostandfoundnorway.blogspot.com/

Hey you... hungry butt!

Hey you, Hungry butt!!!! .... First thought that played through my mind as I stood behind the woman in the GREY SWEATPANTS in line at the post office..... Hungry Butt is what my little sister & her friends say when referring to what in my day, was called a WEDGIE ..... "Hungry Butt" just fit the large bottom , which was gobbling its underwear in front of me.... Ugh.... the sight of her butt was burning into my mind as I waited in the ridiculously SLOW line at the post office.... No longer able to stand the site... I put my boxes down... and did the neighborly thing.... I pulled her underwear out of her butt.... You should have seen the SHOCK & SURPRISE on her face ... Ummm , OK I didn't do that... I tapped her on her shoulder & in my best AMERICAN accent announced to her & the rest of the post office... that she had the picture perfect HUNGRY BUTT... cause it was gobbling everything in sight... K... I didn't do that either... I just stood...

A visit to the ICE AGE....

Sunday... FUN-DAY, Another family day..... Because we had such nice weather, (never knowing how long it will last) we decided to take another family hike.... (2.5 hours....) around the be ach. It is funny, each week, each hike, I see changes in our family....less whining (on my part) & more time learning, enjoying our time together....Bjørn who usually gets irritated with all of my picture taking, is stopping to find things to take pictures of...appreciating colors, nature etc. Dane is less squeamish...touching & picking up all of sorts of things he finds along the hike.... Today we learned about Jettegryter or "Stone Pots" these huge rock formations from the ICE AGE .... pretty cool... these holes are formed by pebbles/gravel being aggitated by water, over thousand of years.... WOW..The holes on our local beach date back to 15,000 years.... the kids had a blast.... & wanted to stay much long...
