Summer

I know I haven't blogged since right after of EFY so I am going to do a really quick thing. Let's see how this all works.

One day we took a trip through town acting the Tourists. This is an old bridge we saw.

They have a fort here with real guns "just in case." We checked it out one day.

This doesn't look like much but this is an old church that they built the library on top of. That is my dream to be forever in the library, except I would like to be alive!

We visited a castle from the 1800's this is where a cannon used to be. The walls were really thick.

This is the castle that we went to. Sadly, it is one story smaller then it used to be. They recycled a lot of the brick on another building.

These are wild blueberries and wild strawberries, they are TEENY, but really sweet.

We went on a hike and found this river and rock dam, all four kids are here somewhere.

This is Monkholmen. It was built from the castle rock. At one point it was a prison at another a monastery.

I played in the water at Monkholmen, this is the closest thing to an actual beach in Norway.

I had a lot of fun, reading on the beach.

Another day in the woods. Berry picking for some of those mini wild blue berries.

We had a great day at the Science museum. A.J. is trying to get the ball through the loops using a fan.

This is the same day we went picking berries, while the girls collected berries the boys collected frogs.

They have a festival here to celebrate some king. They dress up as nights and have jousting tournaments.

Here we are at the festival. If you click on the picture you can make it bigger and see the swords and daggers they are selling, A.J. is holding some chain mail.

 

This is at the fort with the guns, A.J. and I had a Umbrella Fight.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ok, now that you are at the bottom, comment on which one you want to know more about! I will post a full blog post about the one that gets the most comments on!
