Brother Joel and I had such a fantastic time on our Antarctic Expedition in January, 2016, that we’re now headed north to the opposite pole. We’ll be on the same National Geographic/Lindblad ship in the Arctic! And we were even to be in the same cabins. But, better yet, we’ve been upgraded to larger accommodations.
Our gateway is Oslo, Norway, where we’re enjoying four days of exploring on our own before we join our shipmates for a charter flight to Svalbard, in the far north of Norway. Oslo is such a beautiful, clean, safe, design-forward city. Norwegians were declared the ‘Happiest People on Earth' in the 2017 ‘World Happiness Report’, and we’ve found them to be among the friendliest, too. They’ve been out ‘glorying’ in some of the first sun of the summer. And what great timing: we're here for their Independence Day celebration, which seems even a bigger deal than our 4th of July!
