Hello club members, Mid-summer is around the corner!
I had a wonderful trip to Norway and enjoyed being by the ocean, eating a lot of fish and seafood and celebrating May 17th in front of the Norwegian Royal Palace in Oslo. I even waved to the King and Queen!! Our trip started in Bergen, ferry to Fedje Island, drove to Stavanger, Kristiansand, Arendal and ended up in Oslo. All seventeen days sunshine!
