First Full Day in Norway (Friday, Day 2)

For breakfast, we had toast with homemade Huckleberry jam (made by Finn-Olav's mother.) Finn-Olav stopped by in the morning for a visit, and to drop of Siw from returning his car.

Finished our game of Phase 10 – Siw came from behind to win.

Drove into Brumunddal to do some grocery shopping and get some soft-serve ice cream. :) I got mine rolled in crisp sugar candies. I learned that Norwegian adult magazines apparently DON'T have rules against nudity on the cover, but they do keep them on the top shelf in convenience stores.

Had kjøttkaker (meatballs), boiled potatoes, surkål and rødsurkål (sauerkraut and red cabbage sauerkraut), and cauliflower, broccoli and carrots for lunch.

Met Randi's friend Jahn Frydenlund from Moelv, learned how to play Gris ("Pig" or called Spoons in America) and Idiot card games, and taught him how to play Phase 10 -- he won! We got the Phase 10 score sheets translated correctly into Norwegian and emailed to Randi.

I went to bed around 12:30, Siw will be going back to school at 7am the next morning, so she and I said our good-byes then.
