School Trip

Hello!

It has been a while since I updated my blog now! The reason is that me and my amazing class have been on a school trip. That lasted for 4 days. It has been 4 days full of fun.

Tuesday:
We drove from high school 08.30, we drove for 3 hours before we stopped in the great city of Lillehammer. In Lillehammer we ate on Mc Donalds and buyed food for dinner and breakfast the next day. When we had done all of this, we went back into the buss and started driving towards "Hell". "Hell" is a place in Norway where you can find some big potholes. Potholes is big holes that the water have made through decades. Hell was our last stop before we stopped the place we were going to sleep that night. We made some dinner and went to sleep in our tents after we had been chased by some big bulls.

Wednesday:

We woke up in our tents at 07.00 this morning, because we were going to raft this morning. 09.00 we had to meet our rafting guide, we got a russian guide, he was absolutely crazy. After a brief training session we started rafting down the Sjoa river. We fell in the river many times and the water was so cold that we lost our fingers. The rafting was so much fun and scary at the same time! After the rafting we headed back to the camp and packed our bags, and took down our tents, before we went to the bus. Next stop was Lom and the Norwegian mountain museum. We had a tour in the museum and watched a film about the "Under the ice" exhibition. When we had watched the whole thing, we went back into the buss and started driving towards a glacier. The last stop of the day was on top of a mountain near Juvasshytta. We met a guide that took us into a glacier and showed us the art inside and the ice that was supposed to be 6000 years old. After this amazing experience. We headed to the plaze we should camp for the next two days. "Bøverdalen Vandrerhjem".

Thursday:

The weather was absolutely stunning this morning when we woke up. The first thing we did was eating som breakfast inside Bøverdalen Vandrehjem  before we packed our bags with some food and something to drink, before we went to the bus that drove us to Juvasshytta. When we arrived aat Juvasshytta a guide welcomed us, and we got a brief lesson on how to walk on the mountain "Galdhøpiggen". Galdhøpiggen is the highest mountain in the Northern-Europe and Norway. We started walking, and its was a lot of stone and gravel and such things on that path we walked. After 3,5 hours we were finally at the top. The weather was so good that we saw half of Norway from the mountain that is 2469 metres high. On the top a can of Cola costs 40 kr?! When we walked back down i fell and broke my wrist, it hurted so much, but i survived (luckily). When we got back down the bus drove us to our camp again. We ate dinner, and got to sleep again.

On our way to the top.

We finally reached the top in the absolut stunning weather we could see many other mountains in the horizon.

Friday:
This morning we washed our hutts. When everybody were done we walked into the bus and started driving the long way home. After 9 hours on the road we were finally home again. The only negative thing was that i had been very sick during this amazing trip.
