Lifting the Curse in Nykøbing

Lifting the Curse in Nykøbing

Today’s adventure is in Nykøbing as we play an escape game through the city. It’s similar to a series of games by Epic we play as family around the table but this one takes us through the streets.

Our goal is to release Cornelia, a fortune teller, from her curse that she’s had for over 100 years. To do this requires us to find clues, then solve puzzles and riddles to get us to the next location.

We found this is such a great way to see a city over 2-3 hours while learning the history of the place at the same time.

To finish the evening off, Janelle found us a 8k stroll around Møns Klint. A bit of trivia for you…it’s 481 stairs from the shoreline up to the parking lot

Total step count today? 24,500.

Dinner with Odin

Tonight we’re eating with the Vikings and their gods Odin, Thor and the twins, Freyr & Freyja. But first, there’s a mountain to climb. Offersøykammen, a hike that should take us no more to an 3 hours, but with over 450m of elevation gain in less than 4km…this...

Cinnamon Buns, Dog Scritches and Vikings

Well, it was a rainy day today. Luckily there were no hikes scheduled. Phew. Truth be told, I'm not sure our quads could have taken another hike today... That is a sky you don't want to be hiking under! Ooh...starting to clear up a little bit, now we can actually see...

What – is there something on my head?

What an fantastic adventure today, Sea Eagle feeding! We have for us a 2 hour boat ride out into the waters surrounding Svolvær. But first we don our wet and wind weather gear, basically everything one needs for snowmobiling we are putting on. It’s mid-July for crying...

We have the memory…not the picture.

We live in one of the most beautiful places in the world and the beauty of the Lofoten Islands comes in a very close second. The landscape just begs to be explored. How could we refuse? Would you expect it to be so green at 68.2 degrees north? We certainly didn't....

North of 70

We are leaving Finland this morning with so many fond memories that we’ll have forever. So it is with mixed feelings that we board our flight back to Norway. This time to Tromsø, Norway. 70°N latitude (or pretty close) for you nerds out there. This is the furthest...

HO HO HO

Our last day in Finland gets us to the Arctic Circle (brrr) and Santa's Village. I know, I know, we're not at THE North Pole, but I could be convinced that this really is Santa's Village. Or maybe it is just his summer home. If this is Santa's summer getaway...he must...

Reindeer on the road

Still basking in the glow of yesterday’s race, we start heading up the road again. This has all the hallmarks of one hell of a Korean horror movie Our first pit stop is a roadside art exhibit called The Silent People. About a thousand ‘peat-headed characters’ in a...

Not last!!!

As you likely already know...we did a thing. Like entered a young person's competition. What on earth were we thinking? Finland's Wife Carrying Championship...ready or not...here we come. (Disclaimer: we do not have any footage of our race...yet. It was live streamed...

What have we gotten ourselves into?

Our day starts off slowly today with a visit to the local Heritage Park. A collection of buildings and dwellings found in the surrounding communities brought together. We are here early enough in the season that we have two private guides, one who just started 3 days...

Ice Ice Baby

After two days of beautiful sunshine and high temperatures, we woke up to the cold and the rain. We could let this ruin our day OR we could double down. Yep, when things get cold, we get colder. Walking through a giant igloo! We had heard of an ice cave only a few...

Hiking and Camping???

Okay...but in the loosest way possible. You know us. We barely hike and we certainly don't camp. So the fact that today had a surprise hike (and we weren't even a bit phased by it, or upset) and that we ended up in a campground...well...who the heck are we?? This is...

Fortresses, Fresh Noodles & Finnish Saunas

A nice slow start to our day today as we didn’t crack the door to outside until noon. Sometimes you need these days and this was one of those days. It allowed us to recharge ourselves for exploration, to get set to see Suomenlinna or Sveaborg. It’s the fortress at the...

Hello Helsinki!

I feel like we have had a lot of travel days lately...but here is another one! A train ride, a couple of quick flights, another train ride and a metro to get from Bergen to Helsinki, Finland. Happy dance because we get to go flying! Da plane! Da plane! Da train...da...
