Just pop by Norway, mr chris, you wont be dissapointed, mate. (Unless you go to Oslo)

oh, and everything is really expensive.

I will do at some point mate.:yep: I had a friend who went to Oslo once he said it was the most expensive place he had ever been in his life for a beer.:cry:

But we make a h*ll of a good moonshine here! :()1:

Now that i need to try:sunny: :sunny:

For your information mate i was still knocking them back at midnight my time but not long after that my wheels well and truely fell off :yep: Very very messy :doh: :doh:
But boy was it adventure:arrgh!: :arrgh!:

I really don't like it when Norwegians are trying to tell the whole world how beautiful their country is. It's beautiful enough, but there is no need to do too much of it.

But there is one good thing in that video, a pic of a Scandinavian Airlines aircraft...or in fact one of its engines shot from the cabin ;)

Welcome to the thread.

When I was stationed in Aschaffenburg with the US Army I toured all over Europe and had a blast!!! Actually went to Italy by mistake because I fell asleep on the train and they woke me at the border crossing. The only country I didn't make it to was England, sure regret that. That being said and not to appear mean, but I completely disliked going to France. This back back in the mid-80's but they were rude as all get out, at that point I could speak both English and German (German has faded away, if you don't use it you loose it), and on top of that all the people I did have extended contact with STANK!! Just my 2 marks worth :p

I went to Hammerfest, Norway with my parents in 1966. If I recall it right there was a ferry trip to get to Hammerfest. That was in mid july and the town was the windiest and dampest place I have ever been. Food was good. Baked potatoes and cod.(pyttipannu:hmm: )

Beautiful town, for sure. Its called "Pytt i panne" and can consist of a variety of different ingredients, Cod & potatoes beeing one of them..:yep:The ferry is gone, now there is a brigde there (Finished in 1977):

The Kvalsund Brigde:
