  1. Sonja's expression while discussing the reindeer? skulls artwork with the artist is priceless!
    On a fashion note, love Sonja's pants suit, scarf, modern brooch, earrings and shoulder bag. Smart as paint. Lyra

  6. Norway is such a wonderful country! The colours of the sky and the sea are amazing! I stood at North Cape with my hubby and he said: "Look that direction. There come the islands of Spitzbergen - and then north pole!"
