Hi everybody,
Listen this song of The Doors! It's perfect for this article! In exactly one week, we will be in France at your home, ready to come back in Angers for 2 months of school!
But also during the easter break, we were in Norway for one week! Listen the story of the end of the Car :
We had
gone in norway during the easter’s holidays (Matthieu, Pierre, Germain &
Clément). We had taken the boat at hirtshals; near to skagen (the city most
northely of danemark); until kristiansand. We were with many other esaip
student, we left with 3 cars.
We arrived
in Norway at midnight. At the output off the boat, we had arrested by customs.
They searched drugs. We had nothing but the customers emptied the car to be
sure. We staid here for 45 minutes
seeing the customers to emptied all the thing that we had put one hour to fit
in the car. We take the road and after 500 meters in the center of the city, we
had arrested by policemen to control the driver. We had explained at th
policemen that we just go to be arrested by the customers and it’s well
finished. We can say that the car of “Matthieu” doesn’t go unnoticed…..
Finnaly
the first night, we slept at the campsite just next to Kristiansand’s Harbor. The
next day on waking the contrast with denmark have been immediate. Same on the
coast, there was stones, and farther mountains. It was a pleasure to not see a very flat landscape.

Wake up in Norway! |
Then
we went to Oslo during 2 days. The first day, we visited the downtown. There
are many new buildings and building construction. Along the marina, we saw a lot
of very modern buildings!
The islands are also very nice. Through our ticket’s metro and tram, we took
the boat (yes!) to visit the five islands in the fjord of Oslo. They are very
wild! The houses are all wood (photo). On there islands, we didn’t does not in
a capital city, it's strange and nice!! Unfortunately, the price for buy a
hytte” (small cottage) or location is too much expensive and these islands have
become very popular and accessible only to wealthy people.
Oslo and more
usually the Norway is much more cosmopolitan than Denmark. There is much
Arabian and black people and it’s the first thing which have struck us arriving
in Oslo.

Then we had to
continue to Lillehammer but we met German’s girl living in Norway 30 years ago and who have say us to pass by Honefoss and follow the road E16.For her, one of
the best road of country. So, we followed this road and climbed in the
mountains and discovered beautiful fjords and valley. At the sunset, we were at
1400 m, the road was snowy and we didn’t know where we will go to sleep. We
have finally found a nice place to sleep with wood to make a fire.
|
Oh my god, the weather is cold ! |
|
Look the snow on the sides ! |
|
At 1500 m in Norway! |
|
The place where we spent a night ! |
The next day, we
hit the road unfortunately it had snowy all the night. The road was very
slippery and we weren’t prepared to that. We have made approximately 20
kilometers in 2 hours. We had just a pair of chains to the car. In the middle
of the day, we have hurt a snow plough and we have finish in the ditch. Many
Norwegian had stopped their car to help us and one person called the breakdown
truck that brought us to the town of Bismo in the middle of mountain.
Bismo is the
small town with few shops and as only recreational the walking. We met the boss’son
of garage, who says us to sleep in the hytte (cabin) & bring all our
affairs. We spent two nice days here to resolve the trouble about the car of
Matthieu and look for the better way to come back in denmark.

We are come-back
to Oslo by bus for 2 day and we had take a advantage of the capital to these 2 days. We were at the Anker Hostel, for 200kr by night in dormitory of 8 with Kitchen!
