Amazing Race: Norway and Sweden

Hey Twi-hards,

Reindeer Racing!

Wow, what a stressful race! Kylee was freaking out and then there's me, the calm one. Any way, this time we traveled to Norway and Sweden. First, we where in Norway, so we had to find the capital of Norway which is Oslo. Next we had to watch some reindeer racing, then label a picture of what you need for reindeer racing. After that we had to find a fjord, which is a famous sheer cliff in Norway. We then traveled to the lovely towns of: Trollveggen, Trollhatten, Trollstigen, and Trollheimen. Now, you may notice a pattern, notice how every name starts with the word "troll" that's because these towns where named after trolls, a famous part of Norwegian folklore.

Now, here is where it all went "down hill". We had to do a biathlon. But first, let me tell you something about Kylee. Kylee doesn't like to run. I'm serious, she doesn't. So what did we have to do? Run. Kylee walked a lot so we were slow, and then we decided not to run but to play biathlon game on the computer, which we failed. So she wanted to run... Again. So we ran then got to a thing where you have to knock down some markers and we missed. So we ran again. And we missed. Then we ran but made it! We were really behind (in last place actually) and we really needed to catch up. After the whole biathlon thing we had to role dice in "Chance". We rolled a 31 which meant that our "aching backs" weren't "aching" anymore. After that we had to ride some snowmobiles! We had to do 4 laps of the track to get our next clue. Finally, we traveled to the Ice Hotel in Jukkasjarvi, Sweden. Boy, I'm telling you we're so close to getting eliminated.
Wish us luck, we're going to need it!
Love,
Elisabeth Cullen
