Packing

1 Sep 2012 – For All Kinds of Weather!

Wed: 1hr 30mins train from Mechelen to Charleroi/CRL and 15min bus to CRL airport/south of Brussels (EUR14.5 S$23) in time for  another 1hr 30mins on RyanAir to RYG (RYG-CRL-RYG/NOK354 S$77) and finally 1hr on the bus into OSL (OSL-RYG-OSL/NOK290 S$63). The best welcome is the big smile of recognition from Olai 🙂

Thu: happy times walking with Olai while May was at the dentist. The statue of Grete Waitz 1953-2011 (9 times NYC Marathon winner) is especially to Keith for referring to how he met her at the NYC marathons in his younger years! He did not have a clue as to who she was until after she won the race! Only an Irish like Keith with the gift of the gab can tell such unforgettable tales!

Fri: packing for the Lofoten Islands is no an easy task. Need all kinds of rain-gears and warm clothes as this part of Norway is exposed to all elements, Sep is no longer summer. In spite of all the travels taken in this life journey, the packing has always been the part most dreaded. Forecast calls for rains, ouch but hopefully Mother Nature will change her mind to look kindly on us with dry weathers!

One of the gladdest moments of human life, methinks, is the departure upon a distant journey into unknown lands. Shaking off with one mighty effort the fetters of habit, the leaden weight of routine, the cloak of many cares and the slavery of home, man feels once more happy – Sir Richard Burton
