    Apparently, we are sketchy individuals..

    23 Aralık 2024, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☁️ 43 °F

    We spent the night at the Doubletree Hilton last night and caught the shuttle to the airport this morning. No major troubles until we went through security when they had to run our bags twice because our computers and books didn't pass muster the first time. My knee and ankle didn't set off any alarms (for once), so we grabbed some breakfast and now we're settled in and waiting until we can board the plane for the first leg of our journey to Denver. We'll spend the next 24-ish hours either on a plane or waiting to board a plane or train. Gonna to be a long day, but I'm SO happy to be with my Ellie today and that my McKelvie Rose is waiting for us on the other end of this journey.Okumaya devam et

    Delayed!

    24 Aralık 2024, İzlanda ⋅ 🌬 37 °F

    But just for an hour. The flight from Denver was fine, except for the seriously irritating woman and her henpecked husband in front of us. At least there was no barking/whining dog on this one. Ellery spent her time watching inappropriate nudie movies. It was hilarious watching her try to cover the screen and then blush profusely.Okumaya devam et

    It's about 4:15 p.m.Sagene Church

    Merry Christmas!

    25 Aralık 2024, Norveç ⋅ ☁️ 41 °F

    We slept in today. After the girls opened their gifts from Santa and we FaceTimed Daddy and the cats, McKelvie made us a fabulous Christmas dinner. I burned the brownies to a crisp because Celsius and Norwegian instructions and my lack of experience with both make things very interesting. I made up for it later with ice cream. 😊 We went for a walk around the neighborhood at about 4:30 p.m. Very dark and foggy, but beautiful. We also took Ellie down to see the Sagene Church.Okumaya devam et

    The Munch Museum

    27 Aralık 2024, Norveç ⋅ ☁️ 36 °F

    Beautiful art by Edvard Munch and some seriously disturbing stuff by Jessica Baird, who obviously never wanted to have children and definitely didn't like being her mother's primary caregiver in her mother's last years. The Baird exhibit should've come with a warning. Talented artist, but the lady has issues. I liked the Constance Tenvik tapestries.Okumaya devam et

    Today's Walk

    28 Aralık 2024, Norveç ⋅ 🌫 36 °F

    Our adventure began at noon today. We walked from the Stortinget T-Bane stop to Akershus Fortress, and from there, past the National Museum to explore the area before touring the National Museum itself. We found a lot of beautiful (and some very ugly) statues. The naked, red hat wearing ladies were located right near a daycare center. A favorite was the spaceman. When the museum closed, we took another walk through busy streets to the National Theatre stop where we saw the Ferris wheel from the Christmas Market in the distance. I'll add descriptions to these photos as I have time. It was a good day!Okumaya devam et

    Sunshine!

    29 Aralık 2024, Norveç ⋅ ☁️ 39 °F

    Ellie wanted to see the ocean one last time, so we returned to the Oslo Rådhusplassen (City Hall Square). The Rådhuset itself is a beautiful building, too. We also walked past Parliament and the National Theatre before we hit the Christmas Market one last time for candied apples. Then we walked back up to the Royal Palace before coming back to the apartment to do laundry, pack for Iceland (yay!), and eat spaghetti. 💗Okumaya devam et

    Goodbye, Oslo!

    30 Aralık 2024, Norveç ⋅ ☁️ 32 °F

    We left McKelvie's apartment at about 8:30, and after a bus and metro ride, we purchased Flytoget (Airport Express) tickets to Gardermoen. About 30 minutes later, we were there, 3 hours before our flight was scheduled to leave, just as instructed by Icelandair, but of course, their terminal would not open for another hour. Once we got through security, we found our gate and settled in, only to discover that our flight had been delayed 2 hours. At 3:10-ish, we boarded our plane, the crew apologized about 8 different times, and we had an uneventful flight.Okumaya devam et

    Keflavik!

    30 Aralık 2024, İzlanda ⋅ 🌬 23 °F

    The pictures are out of order. I've always liked this airport. This time, we flew over the coast as we came in from Oslo and could clearly see Grindavik, the volcano area, Keflavik, and Reykjavik in the distance...basically, the entire peninsula. The girls let me sit by the window, so that was pretty cool. 🌋Okumaya devam et

    Harpa Concert Hall

    31 Aralık 2024, İzlanda ⋅ ☁️ 23 °F

    When we arrived at the Harpa, we were in for a surprise. There were hundreds of runners, most in costume, leaving the building. Here's what I found online about the event:

    "ÍR’s New Year’s Eve Run (Gamlárshlaup ÍR) is held annually on 31 December by the local sports club ÍR. It is a combination of a competitive race, fun and family time for many people, where participants come together with different goals and backgrounds. The atmosphere is fairly relaxed and some people wear costumes. While some may be looking to improve on their time record on a fairly flat track, others may be aiming for an award for the best costume and the rest probably just to enjoy.

    The race starts at 12:00 at Harpa Concert Hall and distances available are 10 K and a 3 K fun run. There is no time tracking in the fun run. First three in men’s and women’s categories get awards as well as first place in all age groups. Awards are also given for costumes in a few categories. Last but not least, there is a prize draw amongst all participants" (Whatson.is).    Okumaya devam et
