There's More Than Corn in...Karlstad?


Sorry for the lack of posts lately, I was just waiting for something good to write about. Although this post may not fall under the "something good" category, I just had to share this with you! A while back, my Uncle Paul sent me a package. Inside was some food, pictures, and hat. A hat?? Yep, that was my reaction when I was reading the outside of the package. The hat ended up being a joke. It's actually a corn hat. It is a huge foam hat that looks like an ear of corn. The pictures that he sent, was everyone from my family posing and wearing that hat. Probably the funniest package I have ever recieved!

So, a couple of us took the corn hat around Karlstad and had a lot of fun putting it on random statues and such! If you want to check out all of the pictures we took, just click here!
Other than the corn hat, the past week has been pretty great! Corey and his friend came to Karlstad on Friday. (for those who don't know, Corey is a friend from home. He was studying in Kenya and now is traveling around Europe). We have had a lot of fun hanging out the past couple of days! We have been catching up on lost time and reminiscing about past times growing up together and our friends that we miss dearly! I took them on a tour of the big city of Karlstad, took corn hat pictures, biked to the university, and just hung out!
As I am typing up this blog, I sit in Eliann's living room in Norway! Corey, his friend, and I got here yesturday. They will leave Friday, but I am staying until next tuesday/wednesday. It's great to be back in Norway and get to see Eliann and her family! I am also here for May 17 - Norway's national holiday. In about a week or so, I will have an update about whats going on in Norway!

  1. Looks like you are having a blast. You definitley are not missing anything in boring Indiana. The farmers are starting to plant the fields full of corn & beans.

    Enjoy to the max!
