Norge
I booked my trip to Norway last night. It has been 18 years since I was an exchange student there and I haven't been back since. Because Matt is taking Kit and Remi to the Caribbean to a world cup cricket match in a few weeks and Oscar is going to Paris for school in April, Matt suggested that Ella and I go somewhere. I immediately thought of Norway, specifically Oslo and investigated fares. But then I got cold feet...I have so many emotions caught up in my memories of my year there; I felt like I needed to go with an adult, not a 6 year old. But every day she asked me when we were going and it got to the point where I felt like maybe it was a good thing that she was pushing me to do something that I could so easily chicken out of. So I did it! End of May will find me and my gorgeous little travelling companion in Oslo!

Oh how gorgeous! Put Ella's hair in plaits and she might look like a little Norwegian!

ReplyDeleteWon't my boys be envious of that cricket match. Although Rohan and Tom are going to watch England v India in Bristol in August. Can't believe you're going to Norway - lucky you. I've been to Sweden and loved it and would definately go back there. Would love to hear a bit about Norway and what you like about it.
