Well... I decided to take the kids on a little international trip to Oslo, Norway... I was pretty proud of myself flying solo with two kids on a trip involving passports... a little out of my comfort zone, but it was a success! It was cold and rainy, but the Norway motto is:
"There is no bad weather... only bad clothing!" So off we went!
This is the University... also this is the city that awards the Nobel Peace Prize... pretty cool!
The architecture is awesome... this is the wall of a castle over 1000 years old... I loved the red ivy!
The place of residence of the Royal family...
Brian and Stacey were our wonderful tour guides... we were with them in Lakenheath way back when... before they were married. They were our very gracious hosts!
At the harbor! Norway was recently named the Number 1 country to live in... it is beautiful, however, lunch at a deli cost me $75... not quite sure how that factors in!!!
There is a huge park with over 200 sculptures (all naked...) depicting the different stages of man... this small sculpture of a little naked boy pitching a fit is one of the most famous in the park... funny!
Since the kids were ditching the whole "bad clothing" rule... we ended up at a children's museum with tons of hands-on displays... they even had a Lego room which was the highlight of the day for them!
