This summer we had many visitors. Claartje's student rowing team 'Satisfaction' came to stay. The weather was cold but perfect and we/they enyojed the surroundings. We made marshmallows over a fire watching the midnight sun and enjoyed some drinks at Nupen. Furthermore we went on a hike in the Folkenparken and they came to visit the office to see were we work. Apart from seeing the area around Harstad they went for a weekend to the Lofoten with Claartje, and they visited Tromsø and Bodø.
While they were here, Marjolein and Frank arrived by car with their children. After just two days they had to leave again, but it was great to show them where we live and have them here. We made pancakes for all our guests and some friends here in Harstad.
All in all a great couple of weeks. Thank you all very much for coming!
The first visitors of the summer arrived at the end of June; Douglas' old house mates drove and flew in to enjoy the great north. A busy week followed for them with a visit to the Adolf Kanon, the Statoil office, theatre and further enjoying the outdoors. On the 23rd of June we all took a tour to Andøya and Andenes to take part in a whale safari. On the way back through the Vestrålen we had a fire and BBQ at Ånes and we saw the midnight sun. On Saturday we held our innflytningsfest (house warming) in Hawai theme and we ended in the city centre. Most guest left on Sunday, so Douglas, Louqui and Klep went up Elgen. We really enjoyed ourselves. Thanks for the great week!!
