Norway!

On June 30, 2005, the O'Connell-Yeowell family boarded a boat and set sail for the Northern fjords and mountains of Norway!  This is an area of the world that we had always wanted to visit (especially Mark) - our first taste of Scandinavia came at Christmas when we went to Sweden, and now we returned to see what the countries would look like when the sun was shining, and they did not disappoint.  We spent two solid weeks driving around, camping, hiking, riding ferries on the fjords, and generally being amazed at the natural beauty of the land.
