It was Rachel’s first visit to Great Smoky Mountain National Park and Greg’s second trip since 1984. There had been so much snow on the park road that it had been closed until about an hour before we arrived. We didn’t venture too far into the park but we did walk back to see Mingus Mill. Afterwards we gloried in some home made blueberry pie. It’s been a glorious visit. We don’t want them to go back to snowy ol’ Boston.
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.
