A Trip to Tromsø


Some of the Sami people in their traditional dress.

Lily on main street of the town.

We ended up making a snow family. Two older couples from Florida saw our snow man and made him a wife. Lily and I felt they needed a child as well. The snow ended up getting so high that the snow plow pushed our snow family into the ocean (they were on the edge).

Lily loves the snow!

Lily is not a fan of trolls...no matter the size. This was in the Sola airport.

There was almost no snow when we arrived...we were shocked because you just kind of imagine there being plenty of snow in the Arctic Circle. It started snowing the night we arrived and never stopped. We got over a half a meter that night and the following day. It was great. We decided a snow man was in order.

This is the cable car up to the top of the mountain overlooking Tromsø. It was a nice ride and a pretty view.

Here we are overlooking Tromsø from the top of the tram ride. It was mighty chilly up there! Who rode in the tram with us? A family visiting from Houston!
