The Fatherland

Norway, day number 2:

Today we went to church, outside and old farm that is now a museum. It was so cold and windy! I had on a jacket plus a blanket. The music was beautiful and even though the sermon was in Norwegian and I did not understand, it was cool to listen to the language flow. Today, I have decided to take up the language and Erik and I are looking for online language sites. After church I tried an elk burger with a sweet berry type paste on top. It was defintely the best burger ever! Then, many people from all over Norway and even someone from Denmark, came together. We were all connected in some way to the first Solbergs, so we basically had a mini family reunion. It was filled with stories, music, laughter, crying, food, and a large family photo at the end. We later came back to Olebjorn’s to enjoy some hide n seek, dinner, and the best strawberries known to man kind. I am very excited to learn a new language but I know it will take much time and hard work.
