Residence Permit!

I received my temporary residence permit in the mail. Now both of us are allowed to temporarily live in Norway while our visas continue being processed. Only 6 weeks until we begin the adventure. In the meantime, lots of packing!

Updates

School is over for this school year so our new focus is on packing up and getting ready to move. We definitely have enough to keep us busy for the next few weeks! I think that deciding what we are taking with us might prove to be a challenge.

On the Norwegian front: Daniel has been granted his temporary residence permit. At least we know that the process is moving along. I am anxiously awaiting hearing something about mine. I am really trying to be patient! This morning I got official notification about my job for next year. I am going to be the class teacher for year 10 (9th grade in the US) as well as teaching science and .... home economics! I am not all together sure what any of these will entail but I do know that it will be quite the adventure!

A Photo Tour of Trondheim!

These photos are from August 2009 when we first visited Trondheim. We had wonderful weather and really enjoyed exploring a part of the world that we had never visited.
