Norway
I guess anyone who looks on this page regularly is going to think we are a little bit obsessed with Norway - we are! I, Tracy, have been visiting Norway for the last 17 years and Colin for the last 8 years. Between us we've travelled to countries all over the world and have never come across such a beautiful, honest, unspoilt country. We can't help but return time and time again.
We also need to say a big 'Thank you' to our wonderful friend, Froydis, who is our stop off point on all our trips to Norway, 'thanks for the fantastic hospitality, the delicious food, for the huge insight into the Norwegian culture, for teaching us the language (slowly), the cat chat and of course the use of your washing machine, thank you x'

Norway February 2009 - Husky Sledding, Ice Hotel and Skiing
This trip was to celebrate my birthday, we decided to try our hand at husky driving and took a 4 hour trip through some stunning landscape. Our sons, Andrew and Daniel, came with us. We each had our own team of 5 dogs, which were amazing and never tired, it was an experience we'll never forget
We spent a night in Bjorli Ice Hotel and were fortunate enough to have the whole hotel to ourselves to explore and change rooms, above are photos of part of the hotel, one taken with a flash and one without. Below is the Atlantic Road
Norway January 2009 - Taking Sanna to Stud
We took Sanna to Norway to be mated with Cæsar Av Borgund. The Sunrises and Sunsets were absolutely breathtaking on this trip, these photos were taken from Myklebust on the island of Sandoy
We were fortunate enough to come across a group of seals whilst walking along the coast, or more accurately we were followed on our 2 hour walk by a group of inquisitive seals!
Norway March 2008 - Collecting Sandoy

Norway February 2007 - Meeting Froydis
Below are some pictures of our visit to a good friend Froydis Husoy and her gorgeous Norwegian Forest Cats (www.sandoykatt.com). Whilst visiting we walked up a mountain on the island she lives on, along with Astor, a male neuter. Part the way up Astor decided that walking wasn't for him and he needed somebody to carry his 8kg body the rest of the journey!
