European Customer Appreciation Days 2008 - The aftermath

European Customer Appreciation Days 2008 - The aftermath 56K warning

Well. After a 29
Hour INTENCE flight tour home, we're finally back in Norway. Can you spell DELAY??? Fuggin Chicago was fogged up so we coudn't get out of Boise until four whole hours after our flight was supposed to be gone... And..our bag so VERY oversized (thanks Rob LMAO) well, when we got to Chicago was, our flight to Frankfurt was already left...so...we had to stand to hours in line, again, to get to customer support....then...the lady says...RUN TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE AIRPORT THEY ARE BORDING A PLAIN TO FRANKFURT RIGHT NOW!!...And we run...and let me tell you...after two weeks of constant beer consuption and FRIKKIN AWSOME POWDERRIDING (:D) running is NOT what you want to do...and...everybody who's been to Chicago O'Hare knows that it's BIG...whel...anyways...we got to the gate...but they were half and hour delayed, so there was NO point in running...off course....and...when we got to Frankfurt....guess what? Our plain had LEFT us...again....so....another Rebooking...thankfully there where only a two hour waiting for the next plain to Oslo...thank you Lufthansa....but....when we got to the gate..guess what? ANOTHER half hour delay..that turned into an hour before we got airborne....Well...atleast we got to Oslo...and into the Duty Free department...and spent our last hard earned dollars on some more....BEER :D...Like we hadn't already had enough...(ps. Don't drink german Beer).... And....than it's off to get our luggage....and....the only thing left that could make our flight home more fugged up happened....IT DIDN'T SHOW UP!!...Now...nobody knows where it is or if it even will show up...ever....All those cool items...and memories....all the pictures....oh well....we'll find a way....Morten prolly has them on his Ipod...if he doesn't try donwloading CRAZY***** again and looses all the pics...LMAO...can you say computerskills?

Well....atleast we're back...like it or not...I wasn't homesick for a day, is there such a thing as AWAYsick? Cause I think that's what I am right now....we got like a FOOT of snow here....




Anyways...enough of the Negatice stuff...THANK YOU EVERYBODY FOR THE EXPERIENCE OF OUR LIVES!!!!!! we can not thank you enough for the effort you guys put in for an AMAZING experience!!! We had so much fun I don't even know where to begin.... From day one we met the nicest people on the planet...and it just took of from that point on...and....the riding..like NOTHING else we've ever seen....all the snow...all the GREAT riders.... ok...we CAN be outrided by a girl...I never thought I'd say that :) But, we've seen some AMAZING riders...both Female...and male...and..some...not so good once..LMAO... But....all the time spent was SO worth it..and I hope from the bottom of my heart we have the chance to do it again....Life will NEVER be the same again knowing about all the fun we had, and that it's still SO far away from us.... We met some...or MANY friends for life over there... Can notsay I've been bored ONE second there....even the part in Trinities beeing in bed for two days was kinda...well...interesting.... :D

Bull, Morten...... It was great to have you guys over here we had a fun time last week. You picked a prefect time to come ride. The snow has never been deeper and the beer never so cold. I have to say I don't think I ever laughed so much in one week. I'm still hurting from so many days of constant riding and liver punishment. I will work on getting some of those pictures up for the snowest family to see just how crazy the week was.

PS: I nearly decapitated the turtle when I read the "Getto my window"

More to come soon, glad you guys made it home safe.
 
Bull and Morten... you guys are more then welcome. Had a great time showing you around the backcountry of Idaho... just wish I could have got more time off. I will go through the pics that I have and try to get them to you at some point. Send me your email and I will try to forward them. I'll raise my beer to you this weekend again.:beer; Thanks for coming and bringing all this snow... Hopefully we'll be riding until June.


Turtle head.... that's funny!:face-icon-small-hap:face-icon-small-win
 
I wish I could respond but my family is doing an "intervention" and it looks like I"m off to BETTY FRICKING FORD! ha ha ha

Oh my word...where do you start? What an unbelievable time with our good friends from Norway. I'm scrambling trying to catch up after being away so long so I'll have a play by play later when I get time and ENERGY!

I have 730 photos on my computer and it's really too bad that this new website program is so picture challenging because nothing tells the story quite like the pictures!

Ole Bull R and Morten H you guys are incredible and have become great great friends of all of us. While it was a year in the making this was one of the most fun times I've had (trust me here gang that is a top runger cause I've had a pretty darn good life) and all soOOOoooooo worth while. My liver hurts, my brain hurts, my body hurts, and my heart hurts cause I already miss my friends! GREAT GREAT DAYS MY BOYS! Let's be sure to do it again SOOOOOOOOOOON. Rob and Megan

Bull and Mort - WOW - you guys are so much fun to be around. Alan and I had a great time with you boys and sure hope we get to see you again!

Morten - One of these days I will figure out which language we were speaking to each other at the bar in the Trinities! Whichever it was, American or Norweigan, I had a great time talking with you!

Bull - It is a bummer that you got sick in the Trinities, but it sounds like you made up for it in McCall! :) My tree will be there the next time you come ride with us! ;)

I can't believe it took you that long to get home! One day you'll get your luggage - either that or someone is running around an airport with your cool stuff on!

I am so happy when I placed the snow order back in March of 2007 it came through as I requested! WHEW - was a little worried in December, but Mother Nature made up for it!

Here are links to some of the pics I took.

European Appreciation - McCall

I'm working on the ones from the Trinities.

We miss you boys and look forward to the day we can have you back again! Take care!

well guys..our luggage finally showed (except my one bag with dirty laundry) LMAO...

And, Morten was here, and picked up his HMK gear (wich is THE BEST riding gear, EVER), but..he hadn't figured out how to get the pics from the IPOD to the computer (can you believe that? :beer;:D)

He looked and tried to read through the posts, but we ended up that I had to send him the link so he could use a couple of night trying to read it all....(you know his english isn't to good...until he gets 10 beers) :face-icon-small-win

I have SOME pictures though....will post up now..some GREAT shots, some ok.... have fun.

Jay your link works like the 07 Ski Doo REV! I have all 750 of the photos but holy crap it's days of work to get them on this site. Most are just beautiful shots of me anyway so you guys don't need to see them.
