Just chillin’ in the Gamme Cabin. This place is really awesome, the wifi is great, the view is great, the quiet is great. If you’re looking for a place to just relax, this is it. Chillin’ isn’t quite the right term either, because its nice and warm inside, but cold outside, maybe toasting? That’s too […]
As we drove across town, the roads were really well paved, last part of the drive to the Gamme Cabin however is just gravel. One really nice thing is that there are no signal lights to be found anywhere. There aren’t a lot of cars so traffic management isn’t an issue. Typically whenever we take a taxi, […]
KKN is a tiny airport. We walked off the plane down to the tarmac and over to the terminal. There’s nothing around for miles, just the airport. When we first got into the building, Beta was looking around for a screen to figure out what baggage carousel our stuff would come out of. Unsurprisingly, there […]
The plane is nice, but a little old, 737-600. The soda water isn’t free, but the still water is, must be because it’s a domestic flight. Even though the sodas cost money like Spirit, it feels far better on SAS.
We crazy peas have connected to many flights with layovers in other countries. Our layover in Oslo had a little unexpected extra step, but I guess it makes sense in hindsight. When we left Copenhagen, we were very careful to verify that the luggage tags we had listed KKN (Kirkenes) as the final destination. However, […]
Our time in Copenhagen was really really short (24 hours and 30 minutes from landing to takeoff). Even though we barely explored Copenhagen, we did get to take in lots of sights while we were here. We covered at least 8 km walking (Beta’s feet says it’s more like 20 miles). We also had the […]
The walk from the tram stop was pretty good. It was unfortunate that there is so much construction going on right now. Huge green temporary walls are all over the place to cover up the construction noise and dust. It took us around 10 minutes to walk with our luggage through the cobblestone streets and […]
Whew, it’s nice to get off the plane after 10+ hours of sitting. Our bags didn’t take long to come out of the baggage claim. It was pretty easy to navigate towards the “train” signs and find a ticket booth for the metro. Everyone here speaks English well so there’s no language barrier to worry […]
It’s no secret that we crazy peas love food. I talk about food in almost every post. We enjoy a variety of foods from around the world, and there isn’t much we haven’t tried if we have the opportunity to do so. On this trip however, we know ahead of time that our food experience […]
I seem to recall that a long time ago, the airplane seats were bigger, more spacious. I don’t know the statistics of how much the seats have actually shrunk over time. If more recent news is any indication, future plane rides will pack us in even tighter than before. I thought as I walked through […]
