Norwegians do a lot of traveling by foot, car, bus, "roller skis", and of course, bicycles. Here is a photo of bicycles parked at the hospital where Nancy was hospitalized back in September and October. When it rains, they just put on rain jackets and pants over their normal clothes and ride as though the sun was shining. When it gets snowy and icy on the roads, they don't put up their bicycles, just put studded tires on them and act as though the roads were dry.
We see a lot of small cars being driven around here. They appear to be great for 1 or at the most 2 people, but do not carry any extra baggage. When it comes to parking, they do have a definite advantage over larger cars. This is definitely the way to go for those who do not parallel park very well. Also conserves parking places.
Love,
Dad
