Our trip to the Atlantershavsvegen, or however you really spell it, went well. We picked the dreariest day of the year to travel the vacant mountain roads of Norway, but we survived. We are going to go back when the weather is better since the scenery is best served in the Spring. Here are a couple of shots that prove we were there.
Funny thing on the way back. There and back we had to travel on a ferry to cross a fjord. This ferry had all the trappings of a NY ferry. Park the car, go upstairs, sit in the lounge area and have a sandwich or a drink. Very comfortable. The funny thing was that while we were sitting there my phone started beeping. Without going into much detail, I bought an Internet phone to make free calls to and from the U.S. before leaving, but its usage has been pretty disappointing outside of the home we are staying in. Well...turns out that the ferry had wireless Internet across the fjord and we were able to make a few phone calls to people while travelling on a ferry in the middle of nowhere really. Downtown London I get nothing....middle of fjord...no problem.
The Orion paragraph
Dad has chemo today. Yesterday was changed so that he could attend the funeral of his friend Kirby. We talked a bit. He continues to sound more like himself. We talked a little baseball and some other goofy things. He is finished with his rehab schedule, so we can hopefully close that chapter of recovery.
More soon.
