Finally Over!

Our honeymoon is all booked! All forms of transport, all accommodation, and I'm never thinking about any of it again! Atrociously enough, we're going to have to travel for about 22.5 hours to get there ("there" being a town in the far far north of Norway, 2.5 hours on a plane, 16 hours on trains and 4 hours on a boat away via Oslo) and about 28.5 hours to get back (via Stockholm, 6 hours on a bus, 20 hours on a train and another wee flight). Plus of course the hour and a half that we need to get from our place to the airport.

That's crazy. We could have practically gone to Australia in that time.

Oh, and in other good news, I have used up all of my stupid frequent flyer points and will now be saying goodbye to the United programme forever! Yay!

Would it have been easier to just rent a car? That seems like an insane amount of time traveling!

We're not really car people, and I don't think it would saved us any time anyway. The distances we're travelling in trains are about 1200km (the first trip) and then 1500km on the way back. Plus it would be reeeeally expensive, which isn't really something we can cope with. We have a lot more time than money at the moment.
