So here it is, as promised... my post about my 2nd summer trip this year. (You can read about the first trip here.) This time, the girls and I, hubby had to stay at home and work... went to the north of Norway. I have a lot of family up north, and I hadn't been visiting any of them since 1998... so I guess it was about time.

We travelled together with my parents (and their camper van)..jpg)
We went far north... past the Arctic circle....
... up north, to where all the beautiful mountains are....jpg)
...and to our first destination: my cousins wedding.
During the wedding the girls were at their best behaviour and in their best dresses looking gorgeous! Well... at least before dinner...
...after dinner they were - still in their best dresses- running around, climbing trees...
...swinging in the monkey bars...
...and jumping off the swings... I think they had a GREAT time!
After the wedding we headed further north to visit some more family, with the ultimate destination being my brother and his girlfriend on Andenes. .
We did lots of different things during our 2 1/2 week trip. Like...
...picking sea shells, playing with them and sorting them... enjoying all the different colours and shapes. Maja even found this beautiful sea porcupine (is that what it's called?)...
...playing in the white sand at the beach and enjoying the sunshine....
...swimming in the (ice cold) sea...
...and fishing.
The mountains and the colours in the north has always fascinated me...
Look at the bright turquoise of the sea together with the vivid pink flowers... isn't it just lovely?!
...even the mist can be beatiful...

...and not to forget the midnight sun! Here it's almost "touching" the sea... wow... It blows my mind every time I see it... It's just so beautiful the photos can't do it justice, it has to be seen!
We even met some trolls on our way... and the girls weren't scared at all... haha...
That's the end of my trip. There is still much to say, and photos to show, but I think this will do. If you haven't had enough, head over to this post on my mum's blog to see/read some more..jpg)

Gratulerer med ny blogg. Nå kan du virkelig kose deg med sidebloggen.
Gleder meg til å se både kort og håndarbeider i grupper der.
Den turen vi hadde i sommer var flott. Ypperlig å ha huset på ryggen. Jentene var virkelig flinke på de lange kjøreturene vi hadde. Har hatt med "skrytebilder" i syforening i dag. Alle syntes det var gøy å se og de var veldig nyskjerrig på hvordan vi hadde det i bobilen.
Klem fra mamma
