Bodø: First Day


Two words: JET LAG

Quick post.

After we flew in, we had lunch and walked around the city with Richard and Chi, his dog. It took about 15 minutes to explore all of it. Bodø is the cutest.

Right now, it is 2:00am and the sun hasn't set. It won't. I must get used to it.

I have my own hotel room!

Our hotel was one of 3 buildings that remained standing when Bodø was bombed on May 27, 1940.

We also went to Richard's Protestant church where he sings. It also survived bombing.

We will have a walking tour of the city tomorrow and I will learn more about this small, quiet town.


$200.00 = 1200 NOK = not a lot of $$



You can buy shrimps and fishes right off of the boats. Super Fresh.

Tomorrow night, we’re going out for the grand finale of EuroVision. It is like a country-vs-country version of American Idol, with all the country’s finalists competing against each other in this big Grand Prix idol. It's a huge deal here, especially since Norway is the host country this year. Bars are selling tickets for their Grand Prix night parties. Tomorrow, or should I say tonight, we are going to PARTY!

Sunday, we’re going cod fishing.
