Content to be in the continent, we're not cons and don't have a tin tent

Greetangs from Scandinavia!  Trip highlight central over here:  We watched the sun set over Hudson Bay and rise again before we reached the Atlantic.  First order of business in Berlin was to fervently procure and subsequently devour kebab and döner, followed by bubble tea, which is quite popular in that city judging by the proliferation of vendors I approvingly observed as we went bummeln (German verb for strolling the streets) around town. My quest for a smartphone fell flat at the Vodafone store, where the salesman informed me that he could only sell them to persons living in Germany.

Foremost of my appreciations while in Berlin was that of the classic German look exhibited by so many passers by.  It couples an appearance of boldly comfortable tidiness exhibited by the hardy brawn or rotundity of the young and the dress and bearing of the older with an ever present hint of some sort of insanity in the face, perhaps the product of generations of beer guzzlers.  But this as a brief and unstudied, so perhaps flawed, speculation of the phenomenon by me.  Maybe it's best forgotten and replaced by, "German people look awesome."

And so do the people here in Norway.  Plus the drivers were extremely polite this morning.  We rode through some beautiful countryside.  And once we got to Oslo I ate another kebab, even better than the one in Germany.  What further improvements will the future's cuisine hold??
