Summer has landed!
It’s been a little while since I last did a photo update…mostly because the weather has been so damn good. Since the last update we’ve celebrated Norwegian National day, watched Rich and his bro play a set at the Oslo music festival, celebrated Maren’s 2nd birthday, been for our first swim of the year, experienced 28 to 32 degree weather for over a week (woohoo), and attended Shank, Markus and Einar’s housewarming party. We’ve actually done a few more things like celebrate Marianne’s birthday, taken Shank out to try sushi for the first time and had our last, and very fun, Funcom party. But you’ll have to wait a bit to see photos from those days because the update was getting quite long!
So here ya go…things we’ve been up to!
Update 28 - Summer has landed!:
There’s only 4 weeks left of work for us. Our emotions are a mixed bag of excitement (to see everyone back home again and on our way home), worry (have we thought of everything we need to do before leaving?) and a growing realisation of how much we’ll miss this place. The people we’ve met here are damn cool and Norway is a place that has changed part of us forever.
But hey, the winters are just too damn long to get that sad 
I might make up a little graphic like I did last year to show what dates we’ll be where after leaving here…but in the meantime the basic plan is…
July 19th go to Edinburgh to stay with John and Tia.
July 23rd go to Stirling to hang with Ben and Jennie.
July 26th fly to London then Bangkok.
August 1st fly to Sydney (arrive on 2nd).
August 7th bus it to Moruya to see Dan’s Dad.
Sometime before the 18th August, get to Canberra.
18th August, fly to Adelaide.
3rd Sept, fly back to Canberra.
Sometime after that head up to the Gold Coast via Newcastle.
Mid Sept…settle in at Dan’s mums! (at which point I can also visit my bro in Ballina)
So that should keep us busy for a while. In the meantime we’re trying to get as much sun as we can and eat as many norwegian strawberries as possible.
Hope you’re all having fun! Looking forward to seeing y’all soon,
Sonia & Dan xo
