Hi Marcia,

please pardon me for jumping in. Every american thinks Norway is so cold, with polar bears walking around in the street and other wild ideas. Would you believe me if I told you it's actually 9°C (46°F) outside where I live right now? Of course it uses to be colder at this time of the year, but we have to enjoy it while we can. Bye, I'm off to the beach now, where's my sun glasses? :-)
