Trine and Adrian

WE HAVE MOVED TO ÅLESUND.. pretty crazy after three big and wonderful years in Sydney and Hillsong. A new and exciting season is ahead with wedding in may, norwegian classes for Adrian and work for me, we are moving into a brand new house (Adrian will have the house all to himself until may) and we are going to do lots in our church, Agapekirka. EXCITING AND SCARY ALL AT ONCE!!!!

Tourists in Oslo

Well... we left Ålesund friday morning, and after an interesting few minutes at the airport, with security going through our luggage and searching Adrian, plus issues with our tickets, which meant we had to go out through the security again to fix them (shoes and belt off again.. why in the world did I put on boots??), we got on the plane to Oslo. We met Caroline and went to her appartment to then head off for some sightseeing.
We went to the Palace, walking around just chilling, feeling sorry for the guards in their warm woolen uniforms in the warm sun.. soo nice chillin and spending the day with Caroline. She has lived in Oslo for more than 4 years, and know the city really well.



After a while we took an ice cream at Aker Brygge, which is a very popular place, especially during summertime, and many of the wealthy people have appartments here. Rolf came and met us, as he has been in Norway the past month. Sooooo good to see our brother again....

Then we went to Frognerparken, and met up with Oline and also Anka. Great friends that visited Sydney Hillsong this year, and that we were sooo blessed to connect with. Soo much fun to meet them again, and also Anka's husband Carl Oluf and their son Jacob. Amazing and very generous people. Frognerparken is full of statues of naked bodies. Many interesting ones I have to say.. but it is pretty cool. Trine, Caroline, Rolf, Oline and Adrian

Anka took us to Holmenkollen which gives us an amazing view over the city before we met Caroline again for dinner. Adrian has since last year been really pumped about Ungfila, which is the youth ministry in one of the largest churches in Oslo. We found our way there at 8 for youth, and it was great to be there. We finished the night off with a yummy "kveldsmat" at Anka and Carl Olufs place, great food, fellowship and friends..

Past 1am we found our way to bed, and had our last breakfast in Norway for a while, early the morning after... Trine, Jenny(Carolines flatmate) and Caroline

Thanks guys for giving us the BEST time in Oslo..
We love you all!!!!!
