Norway Pictures
All of my pictures from Norway are up now at : http://photos.nothingnoteworthy.com/v/travel/2009_norway. I’ll probably post an update tomorrow about my sight-seeing on Thursday afternoon and the trip home.
Ack! No Communications!
Ok, this is the part that sucks. I just got off the phone with John (who I pulled out of a class to talk to) and feel like hearing a little more “voices from home”. But Skype is hating me tonight (keeps dropping my calls), everyone whose number I have memorized is still at work [...]
More Norway
