First entry of the trip
|
Friday, May 2, 2008
I actually managed to sleep 3-4 hours on the plane ride to London. Mary’s people didn’t help her when we went through security, as she seemed to receive the most scrutiny. Arrived in Oslo on time, but my and Shawn’s luggage remained at London Heathrow.......Read More

|
Monday, May 5, 2008

I was told that Sandgrund was not the name of the place we had dinner on Saturday. Whatever the name, it was still a great place.
Today we had our first vocational day. I visited the office of Romerike Arkitekter (www.romark.no). I was quite surprised with......Read More
