Norway and Amsterdam

Andrew was away for one week on business in Norway and Amsterdam. He was fortunate to arrive in Norway on their national holiday. The majority of people were dressed in traditional costume as they spent their day watching torch parades and having family outings.

Traditional Norwegian Costume

Andrew stayed in a beautiful city on a harbour surrounded by hills.

He ate smoked whale and reindeer (don't tell Dylan) and went up a funicular to see the top of the city.

Later they were back in Amsterdam...where the bicycle rules!

Andrew's disappointment with this trip was that he did not have time to return to his beloved recumbent bicycle shops (this trip was, after all, only for business).
