part ii-- bergen pics

it's amazing how just 48 hours at home--"old home" as owen calls it--and bergen and boats and bacalo all feel so very very far away. and i don't think it's because it really is far away as a week of travel to get back to old home but because when it's all said and done we always come back to dorothy and the mantra "there's no place like home." but i still wanted to post these pics, not only because its become a ridiculous exercise in postponement or because bergen is a beautiful city but because these capture the best part of being in norway--the part where we're together as a family and that makes everything that much more amazing. so here's my "slideshow":
