Norway day 1

We travelled down to Gatwick yesterday because we flew out so early this morning. I tried not to read into our view from the hotel....

Once we arrived in Norway, however, something caught my attention - I seem to be able to read Norwegian.
Who knew?!?

It probably helps that about half of the words are just English spelt with a Norwegian accent. For example:
- Welcome = Velkommen
- Exit = Ut

- Tomato = Tomatisert
- Tourist information = Turistinformasjonen

- Room = Rom

- Toilet = Toalett
- Cathedral = Katedralen
- Hot drink = Varme drikker
- Laundry/Dry cleaning = Vask/Rens
and occasionally, the words are just French or English, which is helpful.

What is not helpful is that food is hugely expensive. To give you an idea of prices a hamburger at Burger King here in Tromso costs £11. Eek...

But enough of my garble, here are some pictures:

It's a heart!  

It's another realm!

Tomorrow we are getting on the boat and going dog sledding so hopefully I'll have some good pics for y'all then :)
