When we were in Oslo we did the Viking ship and Kon-Tiki museums.

So did we :T.

Walked to Sainsburys for a successful coupon-using, bonus point-collecting visit this evening :T Also walked round the science park at lunchtime and now at 17,000 steps for today without much effort

Second installment of the Norwegian trip:

Day 4 - self-guided walking tour of Bergen (you'll have to wait until the final day for the funicular Goldiegirl - Day 4 was cloudy!). There was the most fabulous yacht docked in the harbour. Mr MWC is going to start saving for one just as soon as we are mortgage-free... a bargain at $330M :rotfl:
Transfer by train to Voss.

The most steps I ever managed in one day was just over 20K and I thought my legs were going to drop off so very impressed at your strideability:T

PS. nice yacht - perhaps you could call her "the nattypants"?

Are you joining SW or WW to do it, or just cutting down and exercising?

Hi Tilly

I'm going to have one last attempt at going it alone... if I haven't lost at least 1lb/week by the end of the GCC (7 weeks) I shall be joining WW and a gym

I've not eaten any of the Norwegian chocolates I took into work :A

I actually fell asleep last night dreaming that we had won the euro-millions lottery and chartered Serene for a week :rotfl:

Very nearly driven to chocolate by completely clueless US colleagues but I managed to stay strong :T Up until then it had been a very dull day!

Next installment:

Day 5 - a 7km hike across moorland with rocks and marshy areas after taking the cable car up Mt Hangur. Christened our waterproofs!!!







Day 6 - bus from Voss to Granvin, walked over the mountains from Granvin to Ulvik along the Old Post Road (15.5 km)

WOW. GASP. WOW.

Stunning pics MWC

Loving the 'Ding-lo, swee-t (cable-car) char-i-ot, coming (up the mountain) to carry you ho-ome ......'

(sorry, cheap rugger joke! )

And the post road - 15km :eek: OK in summer, but........ :eek:

I'm really enjoying these pics MWC - ta everso for sharing

Oh, and on the matter of the yacht, I'll ask again whether 'the girls' are in possession of passports, as clearly that has a bearing on how many of 'us' can join you and your DH on the 'Serene'........ :rotfl::p

Have a great day muddywhitechicken - and I hope that all your colleagues are wonderful to you today

Sorry for going AWOL Greying - the final Norway installment will be this week, I promise

There haven't been enough hours in the day lately

The big news here is that we have been adopted by a little hedgehog :cool: Henry is soooooo cute and is partial to The Girls' mealworms

We've had a lovely afternoon with friends - sitting in the garden, chatting and eating yummy food Mr MWC did the cooking so I had to do the washing-up...

Still 4 days to pay day :eek:
