Our last Saturday in St Petersburg we gathered the local members of the family, Mike, Cathy, Matt, Emily, Ed, and “Uncle” Gary for a dinner at Midtown Sundries. It was that evening that all our favorite Midtown servers realized that we will be leaving within days. After dinner we went back to the apartment, aka The Big Empty. It’s interesting entertaining when the floor is just about the only seating available.
Our walking tour through the historic heart of Stavanger gave us insight into the canning and maritime industries that fueled this community as well as some tasty tidbits.
Our short visit to Njardarheimr gave us insight into life in 11th Century Norway and educated us on the role of “Vikings” within the Norse community of the time.
A stop at Ålesund at the entrance to Geiranger Fjord gave us a glimpse into life in and the history of a coastal city in Norway.
