Summer Fun

We are just living life. I realize that I haven't posted any pictures since things have greened up. It is as green as it was white during the winter. We are loving riding bikes, hiking, sticking our toes in the fjords, and jumping on the trampoline.

17 May - Norwegian Constitution Day

17 May is Norway's National day. It is a really neat day. Every town it seems holds a parade, everyone displays Norwegian flags, and people all dress up in a suit, dress, or traditional bunad. Wikipedia tells you all you want to know.

When we walked out the door  to go to the parade in the city we realized how painfully underdressed we were. We promptly turned around and put on our very best clothes and headed into town for a really nice day. For me, nothing compares to the American flag, but the sight of hundreds of Norwegian flags was awesome. It has to be one of the coolest flags out there.

Playing Around

This is a mix of pics over the last month. 

Into the Woods

The awesome thing about riding a bike is being able to access the endless trails around here.
