Land of the midday moon. Up
north just a few hours of sunlight with a very low sun that annoys because it
always gets in your eyes. The sun is like a guest who arrives late, annoys you
and leaves before everybody else.
Norway is the land of the watch. Your watch tells you when to get, go to bed
and when to eat.
Norway is the land that was flooded and infiltrated by the sea. Steep rugged
hills surrounded by the invading water. Fjords and islands everywhere.
The sea is not warm, relaxing, full of coral reefs and full of pleasures. The
sea is full of oil and gas leading to money.
Historically the sea resulted in skilled sailors and conquests far and wide.
The Vikings invaded England and left behind names such as Solomon.
The sea is also full of food. Every national dish we have had contains some
sort of fish. We have seen many salmon, muscle farms and fishing boats.
So enjoyed reading your blog on your Norway trip! We were there a couple of years ago.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you.
We also loved Norway. Hope that came through.
