We have been south in Norway for a few days, to Moi, the village where Terje was born. The village where we used to spend every summer for almost 40 years. Now, with both my parents in law death, we seldom go back, but this weekend a birthday celebration in the area gave us the excuse we needed.
Terje´s brother and his wife still live at Moi. We stayed with them, and the first morning, when we were enjoying the fresh morning out on the terrace, Terje pointed down to the school. "Look at that old building" he said, "it was built in 1963, the year I started school. I still remember my first day here. We were all treated with saft (homemade fruit juice) and skoleboller ( a traditional Norwegian pastry with icing sugar, coconut and egg cream, skoleboller means school buns :-))
It took us about 90 minutes to drive back to Moi from the party we were at. In the middle of the Nordic night which never gets dark. The perfect time to talk about childhood memories.
