Traveling to Norway with kids - Days 4 & 5

Wedding weekend!

Ida´s wedding was about 30 minutes outside of Kongsberg, so we found a bus that could get us to Kongsberg and planned to have Hedda meet us at the station and drive us to the locale, Søstrene Storaas Hotell. What a beautiful spot!  The Søstrene Storaas Hotell is run by 3 sisters and it is a member of the historic hotel group in Norway.  This means the building itself is full of traditional charm and the meals are incredible!

We arrived at 11 and got checked in and freshened up for the wedding, which started at noon.  The alter was set up in a clearing by the side of a beautiful lake with trees around us.  Ida rode in on a horse driven sleigh, looking beautiful and extremely happy. The ceremony lasted about 40 minutes and included songs, vows, a blessing and a funny pastor with meaningful anecdotes and a few jokes.

Next it was time for a short rest to prepare for the reception.  I had been told the dinner would last 4 – 5 hours, and Ida wasn´t lying.  We started with a champagne toast at 3:30. At 4 we went into the barn where all the tables were set up. By 4:30 we had a bowl of soup and a slice of bread.  Then the speeches started. The main meal came around 6 and consisted of pork, onion puree, carrots and potatoes, followed by more speeches.  Around 8, it was time for Dessert: a chocolate cake with raspberry sauce and raspberry sorbet, followed of course, by another speech or two!  I had the privilege of ending the night by teaching everyone how to sing the Skogfjorden Takk for Maten song.  At that point, the dancing started, but I needed to get the little ones to bed.

The next day was Sunday, July 3rd, which meant there was a Fourth of July celebration at Frognerparken.  We tried to attend once we got back to Oslo, but it was pouring down rain.  The kids took a pony ride under the trees, but we were all ready to crash after our big weekend.

  • God bless Capital Crypto Recover Services for the marvelous work you did in my life, I have learned the hard way that even the most sensible investors can fall victim to scams. When my USD was stolen, for anyone who has fallen victim to one of the bitcoin binary investment scams that are currently ongoing, I felt betrayal and upset. But then I was reading a post on site when I saw a testimony of Wendy Taylor online who recommended that Capital Crypto Recovery has helped her recover scammed funds within 24 hours. after reaching out to this cyber security firm that was able to help me recover my stolen digital assets and bitcoin. I’m genuinely blown away by their amazing service and professionalism. I never imagined I’d be able to get my money back until I complained to Capital Crypto Recovery Services about my difficulties and gave all of the necessary paperwork. I was astounded that it took them 12 hours to reclaim my stolen money back. Without a doubt, my USDT assets were successfully recovered from the scam platform, Thank you so much Sir, I strongly recommend Capital Crypto Recover for any of your bitcoin recovery, digital funds recovery, hacking, and cybersecurity concerns.

  • FUNDS RECOVERY & PHONE HACK/CLONE??

    FUNDS RECOVERY

    SCAMS CAN TAKE MANY FORMS, BUT ALL SHARE A COMMON GOAL: TAKING YOUR MONEY

    Fraud can happen in many ways—whether it’s binary options scams, love scams, forex fraud, crypto investment schemes, or loan scams. If you’ve been a victim of any of these, it’s easy to feel confused and overwhelmed by the different financial institutions and legal processes involved in recovery. The journey to reclaim your stolen funds can often be frustrating and difficult to manage on your own.
    The recovery process usually involves navigating complex legal and financial systems, which can be even more challenging without experience. In such cases, it’s crucial to seek professional help from a trusted firm specializing in fund recovery.

    PHONE HACKING/CLONE

    Working on a project like this requires precise analysis and multiple layers of security breaches to successfully gain access to or clone a target’s phone or social media accounts. This includes access to Facebook, email, fix credit scores, and school results or company databases. If you’ve ever needed a hacking service that involves breaching security and obtaining maximum access, you’re looking at the best service provider right now.

    BE CAUTIOUS OF IMPERSONATORS AND SCAMS

    The success of recovering your stolen funds or gaining access to a target’s device largely depends on the company you choose to work with. Unfortunately, the internet is filled with fraudulent firms posing as recovery or phone hacking services. These scammers use deceptive tactics and false promises, claiming they can recover lost funds or clone phones, but their real goal is just to take more of your money. Always be cautious and verify the credibility of any service before trusting them.
    Many scammers impersonate legitimate firms and use deceptive tactics such as creating fake email addresses with numbers.
    It’s essential to be vigilant and carefully select a reputable firm with proven expertise.
