The last Dallons family

Staying with Stephan and Melinda was great. The kids were so fun to be with and it was harder to understand their French. We went to a glassblowing factory and saw where my family got its start. We wanted to buy some crystal glasses from there, but we thought we should wait. Lunch time was good as we went out for mussels. The saying is "mussels from brussels." We also had some more french fries with mayo.....yummy.

We went back to their house, watched Pinnochio in French which was funny to hear the new voices, and then we departed. Maxime was very sad to see us go. Aaron got along with him well, making electrode models and building skyscrapers with building blocks. 

We arrived in Norway at about 1:00 and the sun was still hinting out from behind the mounains. We did not go to bed until 3 and already it looked like dawn when my father goes to work in the summer. Today we are ready for tons of daylight.
