Bergen Weather

It's been a week since my move to Norway and I have to admit, I've been loving the weather here so far. Its been an airconditioned kind of world as we Caribbean people would say. Its fascinating also that you go OUTSIDE to be cool and INSIDE you are warm. It is the total opposite in Trinidad. You are smeltering outside in the relentless heat and then you run inside for the respite of aircondition. Even in the shade is a welcome rest from the burning rays of the sun, whereas here, its the opposite. You actually avoid the shade cuz then it gets cold. Whey yuh sey dey???
Today was the first time that it was overcast and I have to admit I actually like it like this more.... terrible I Know!. But it was actually warmer.. I did my first set of sweating today ... like getting dressed or outta the shower like we do in Trinidad. Then when we went outside I was so pleasantly suprised to have a warm breeze.. I could have happily driven with the top down TODAY ... but it somehow it seemed to be "almost raining" to my husband... ah well ... Convertibles would never work in Trinidad .. who wants to have a burnt head every day ... ??

I'm still fighting to get into the time zone. If you have any suggestions please let me know .. But I'm dying for sleep! I wake up at a decent hour like 8am or 7:30am .. but end up running back to that warm place called bed. Only to wake up at the 2 pm mark ... ARGH ... wrong time zone!!
I'm supposed to be learning Norwegian and I've sort of given myself a time frame... but we are still unpacking so that is perhaps not going to happen until I have absolutely NOTHING to do BUT learn the language...lol ... ok that will NEVER happen . i WILL always find something to do!.
But seriously ... 3 months? think I can do it? .. I'm confident that at least i can blurbler my way thru a conversation ... excluding business and fancy talking ... give me a 5 year old and we can have a great conversation!

So let's see how the weather and the Fluency in the Norwegian language works with me .. Shall they coincide? Or shall I be blurbbering my way with a 5 year old quite to france in Winter?
Whey yuh Sey? eh?
