Well, since we were asked to write about the "trip" we were on I guess that what i'm going to write about :)

The first day, most of the time went away on the buss. I was taking notes sometimes of the landscape and the change of scenery since one of the main reason we were on this trip was all about writing a log about landscape/scenery etc for our geography class. We visited a place where they had some amazing "potholes", they had made it so you could go down into them and see how the water had digged out the bedrock into deep round holes. So "Hell" as it is called is truly a place worth visiting if you are in the area. We also visited a place called Kvitskriuprestinn where they have the closest thing you can get to "sandpyramides", to find a simmilar phenomenon you have to travel all the way to the Pyrenees in France. After that we went to a camping place and slept in tents and had loads of fun.

The second day we went rafting in a river called Sjoa, the water was quiet cold but you almost didn't feel it because we wore wetsuits which kept us warm. Rafting is also something I really recomend doing. After that we traveled to Lom and went to the Norweigan Mountain Museum and both saw a movie about an "ice cave" they had been digging out the previous years were they had found tons of items and other gadgets from thousands of years ago. The museum also had many of the items they had found on an exhibition for people to see. After the museum we went to this ice cave, it had an inspiration of norse mythology and was really cool, you could see the different "layers of time" through the ice. At the end of the day we traveled on to the last sleeping place where we would sleep for the two last nights.

On the third day we went to climb Norway's highest mountain, Galdhøpiggen. What was really nice about this trip was that the weather was good the whole time, when we finally reached the top I think most of us was pretty exhausted, you could say the the trip was split into three different parts, first getting to the glacier, the walking the glacier and the last part, climbing the mountain. It was good to come back after the trip, the rest of the day went away to having fun and relaxing. The last day was the time for the long drive home, I think we started at about 09.00 or so and was home at about 16.00, on the way we stopped in Fagernes.
