please let him know we miss him, and that he can earn
himself a pretty badge with the Norwegian flag and the Royal Castle in Oslo on it smile

Today is the day. Norway celebrates May 17th, the date their Constitution was signed.
For a good many years, Norway was part of Denmark, but in 1814 Norway partnered with Sweden
until 1905 when Norway finally became Norway. A very young nation in many ways.
In 1905 the Norwegians elected a Danish prince as their King, and to this very day,
his descendants have been heads of state in the Kingdom of Norway
which is only one of many reasons why Norway and Denmark are close friends.
We usually help each other in emergencies as for instance several years ago when
during a strike and lockout in Denmark we went out of yeast for home baking mainly due to hoarding.
Norway shipped tons of yeast to be distributed in Denmark
love struck tongue
Few understand to celebrate Freedom as the Norwegians.
They arrange for numerous parades all over the country.
The most touching is probably The Children’s Parade in Oslo where the children
and their adult companions are dressed up in their Norwegian best
and are greeted by the Royal Family at the Castle in the middle of Oslo.
And there is an ocean of Norwegian flags.

Chit-chat
Between relaxing with books and movies, grating beet roots for tonight’s dinner

You'll see it here, BladeD cool
A great base camp trip.
biggrin Yes, isn't it Damon?
I got an email from the team captain yesterday. What a rarity.
I wonder if it is the same as I got rose - and did we all get one?
You know there is this feature for team Captains that allow them to e-mail all team members if they wish.

It's a pleasure to welcome sunfolk rose to this trek.
I don't know whether stefada, our excellent camp fire cook,
briefed you or you just happened by.
What I do know is that you'll probably need a glass of cool beer
after your long trip from New Zealand smile
