Back

I just returned from Bergen- quite possibly the most beautiful city in Europe if you manage to visit it during one of the three days out of the year when it isn't raining- like today. Apparently being surrounded by seven mountains does something to the weather. They literally have an annual rain festival. There are all sorts of ancient wood buildings downtown that have fire sprinklers on the outside of them (and the inside). You would think that with all that rain, they wouldn't need them.

Last night we had a special dinner for our clients and partners. I opted for the reindeer. I ate Rudolf, and he was quite tasty.

We had a bit of a scheduling fiasco that I won't go into at the moment, but as we were waiting, four other flights left for Stavanger. When we finally left, the flight back lasted maybe 25 minutes- which makes a three hour wait in the airport feel unacceptable. We had an amazing clear view of the coast on the way back to Stavanger.
