Things I've Learned/Observed Here So Far...

Here is a small list of things I have learned/observed here so far, I will continue this list throughout my stay here in Norway!

Things I’ve learned/observed so far:

1. You actually CAN survive without a dryer for your clothes.

2. It is perfectly acceptable for boys to wear Faux Fur.

3. The most popular car by far is a Station Wagon.

4. The Trains wait for no one--even if the doors shut in your face. (We learned this by experience of course)

5. “Checks are from the 1900’s.”

6. Public Music is never sensored! All words at any time it seems!

7. Sunday is a true day of rest here. Most everything is closed, and they start shutting things down early on Saturday. (Which is probably how it should be…)

8. Cross Country Skiing is extremely popular in Norway. Actually skiing in general! Ha

9. Your beer ALWAYS  stays cold.
10. Pre-gaming like you use to do in college is the norm. Gatherings start at 9...Going out around 11-12 :)
11. We were told from a friend that walking around the streets with an open container is against the law. As Kevin said it, "We aren't in New Orleans anymore.." Ha.

To be continued…

We had a very eventful past three days…Vinterfestival, Irish Folk Concert, Celebrating our 1 year Anniversary…etc. I will fill you in when I have some time this week. I start my beginner's Norwegian Course tomorrow. I will be going three days a week for three hours! Exciting!
