"THERE GOES THE NIGHT"
Day 1
After
surviving Horrorcante airport once again I had to face some rather uncomfortable
experiences on the flight to Oslo.
No-one expects
to be pampered on these budget airlines but simple courtesy is a must in the
service industry and these people need to be reminded of that. (Yes, I will!)
Maybe the
flight attendant had some personal problems but sometimes we just have to leave
these things behind and do our job as professionals ...
Anyway we
arrived in Oslo on time and I met Steve as we prepared for the flight to
Bardefoss which is in the far north of Norway .... where it doesn´t get dark at
this time of year!
We didn´t know
at the time but this fact (as quaint and fascinating as it is to experience) was
going to cause us some problems later.
But this show
had been sold out for a while and Krister and his team met us at the little
airport for the 90 minute drive to Gryllefjord, our home for the next few days.
They had
prepared a small house for us on the edge of the fjord and it was really quite a
beautiful location.
Everything we
needed was there and so we drank a little red wine and went to bed to try and
sleep.
As it turned
out this was practically impossible because, at 01:00 in the morning it was
broad daylight!!
Hmmmm.....
