Raise your hand if you wish you didn't have to go to work today. (Both of my hands are in the air.) After a second five day weekend in a row, I really was loving this whole life-of-leisure thing. How about ya'll?
Trying to thing of a blog post for today, I just kept thinking about how I don't want to return to reality. So I decided that I'd run with that, and we'd escape today....to Norway!
After I returned from my incredible 8 day trip to Paris and London last year, I've been trying to figure out where I wanted to explore next. I've been to Italy, Greece, Germany, so those obvious ones were out. I realized over time that I was repeatedly pinning images of Norway on my "travel fantasies" Pinterest board, so I'm thinking that may be a great next destination.
Have you been? Have you ever thought of wanting to go?
Norway is wayyyy up there, north of mainland Europe + just to the west of Sweden.
First, a few basic Norway facts:
Official Name: Kingdom of Norway
Capital City: Oslo
Official Languages: Norwegian, Sami
Government: Unitary Monarchy (they have a King - Harald V!)
Currency: Norwegian krone
Population: 5.1 million
And now to let some pictures do the talking...
What do ya'll think?

Never been to Norway but heard great things about this country. One thing stuck with me, and from a "former" Swiss perspective, was that Norway is expensive. All Swiss people told me this, and we all know how expensive the chocolate country is. hahaha.
Happy Monday. The day is halfway over. :)
