To Norway and Beyond

People of Norway - Farfar

This is Marius and his grandfather sitting on his boat. He's 85 now, and used to be the principal of the primary school in Kragerø. I've talked about him a bit before, and he's a fascinating man. He was born a baptist in Sweden, and when he started teaching he wasn't allowed to teach religion in school as he wasn't a member of the Norwegian state church.

We went for a ride around Tåtøy, and he and Marius pointed out various houses and interesting things. Tomorrow there's going to be a big family dinner here, should be fun.
