Hei Hei as they say over here! We have been in Norway for one week and have already worn all the clothes that we brought with us. The surprising thing is that we wear all of them every day! Ok, well maybe it isn't that chilly here, but this weather will most certainly take some getting used to (I'm just saying it is JUNE!!)
This photo is of us arriving in town from the airport on our first day here (150 US$! taxi ride). It was pouring rain and chilly and August was thrilled: his only pre-arrival wish was for cold and rainy weather. He will be ecstatic when it sleets!
The second photo is from the little house here at my cousin's place. It is available to all of the owners here in the building. Barbro booked it for us for 2 weeks. It has lovely heating cables in the floor!
Since our arrival we have seen three apartments and are waiting to hear from the renter who's apartment we liked the best. But, as the were literally dozens of other folks looking at it, and as we don't have a Norwegian credit rating (!?) we are not as sanguine as we might otherwise be. We have also been to the botanical gardens, the Natural History museum & Ramme Gaard. All fun and elightening activities!
We have had lots of yummy cheese and bread, and our share of marzipan and chocolate too. Now I'm making myself hungry ....

Welcome to the rest of the world! The main thing is you all look happy-- good luck with the apartment hunting.

Thanks Kathy!!
Balen and I were looking through our photos from Troncones, Dec. 2008 last night. He and August playing futbol, and with Evita and the sea turtle hatchling. He asked when we can come back south to see you guys and I explained you were all in Norway. So, when you get back to Mexico, Balen is planning a visit :) Hope you are all well--we have such lovely memories of our time at Hacienda Eden.--Trina
