John Renee and Morgan are nice enough to pick me up at the airport. We visit the Kon-Tiki museum, where you can see the balsa raft Thor Heyerdahl used to sail across the Pacific in 1947 to prove...ah, what does it matter. There's also the papyrus reed boat, Ra II that was used to prove something else. He did it all in the name of science, but I'll bet he just wanted an excuse to drink some beer and doing some extended fishing.

We spend the rest of the day just chilling, meeting up with a few friends, and the like. We enjoy a night out at the pub and I get to talk to some highly-wired Japanese guy about baseball. However, we don't get a place to sleep as the only friend we can find to put us up lives in the opposite direction of the airport.

After a night sleeping in the car, I get to the airport, where I fall asleep again. I nearly miss my flight, but I wake up in time to hear my name being called on the P.A. to get my butt on the plane. I make it on the plane and make it home.

Well, the trip is over and I gotta say that it will be good to pay normal prices again...Scandinavia is crazy expensive. I must thank all the people who put me up, and who put up with me. Skol!
