Flying To Norway (and Back)

We flew with Continental Airlines out of Newark (NYC) - simple flight over, very complicated flight back with weather delays and endless lineups! The flights from NCY to Oslo were fantastic!

Tjome - A Few Days by the Sea

We spent 4 days in Tjome - 125 KM south of Oslo. We spent time with Elin and her children and with Anders and Erik and Helene. It was very warm and cool at night. Elina spent an afternoon swimming in the North Sea! I (Dina) got another bout of poison ivy!! (first was in Norway 2 years ago)
