Norway is here

In between more current activities, I've been giving a photo tour of our trip to Morocco, Spain, Portugal, and Gibraltar on my Instagram, tracked by the not too creative or lyrical #MorSpaPorGib. I'm happy to announce that trip is officially done, so it's time to move on to something new, our February 2016 trip to Norway!

The main driver for this trip was seeing the northern lights, with a side of traditional Sami culture and viking history to boot. Over our 12 day trip we took in Oslo, Tromso, Bergen, Flam, and Trondheim.

We had a fantastic time. Norway has great walkable cities, even in winter. We bundled up as needed, and enjoyed seeing the old stone churches, exploring museums, and even dining outdoors thanks to sheepskin blankets and warmers. And yes, we did see the northern lights.
