We arrived in Oslo on schedule today at 2:35 P.M. local time. We only lost one of the 6 bags that were shipped. We found when we arrived at the airport in SLC that extra bags cost 200.00 (can't find the dollar sign on this norwegian keyboard] We are currently at the YSA outreach center in Oslo (I will send pictures later, it is marvelous).  We cams straight here from the airport, so we are pretty tired, but it has been nice to meet the YSA here and the Senior couple.  We will probably stay in Oslo for a couple of days to see if the bag gets found (it is the one with most of my clothes in).'

We will be leaving Oslo tomorrow to drive to our new home in Trondheim. The address there is:

Elder and Sister Sorensen

Østtunvegn 16'

7023 Trondheim

Norway

We are excited to get underway.  It rained most of the day yesterday in Oslo, but today is sunny and clear.  We are hoping for the same tomorrow as we drive.  Our car is a VW Polo (a 4 cyl. 1.2 liter diesel, 5 speed manual trans) I hope it holds all of our luggage and can then navigate the hills we must cross to get to Trondheim.

I am using the computer in the mission home now, we will probably use the one in the Trondheim outreach center for a few days until I can get converters to hook up our compter to this 220 volt system.

Love,

Gerald and Nancy/mom and dad/Eldste and Søster Sørensen
