Day 5 - Hello Norway


     Shawn had an early flight back to the States and the boys and I left for the airport via the M2 Train around 7:30.  Our one hour flight from Copenhagen to Oslo was quick.  While at the Oslo airport, we had lunch before catching our next flight to Hartsad/Narvik, above the Arctic circle at 1:00.  Again, the flight was quick.  When we arrived in Harstad/Narvik, Paul went over to Hertz to pick up our car.  It was raining and a drag!!  We stopped at the grocery store before trekking up the mountain to Svein’s. The boys had learned from last time that there are no grocery stores near Sveion’s, so if you want to eat, get it in town.
     Well the drive to Svein’s was a nail bitter.  It rained and sleeted the whole way, about 4 hours.  We rented a tank for a car, Volvo, with snow traction tires!  Safe care, but roads were NARROW!!  I was relegated to to the back seat and I do not do well in the back seat when traveling through the mountains.  Opening the window for fresh air and talking myself out of puking for 4 hours, was exhausting!  But we got there and fell into bed.
