All the pieces of the Norwegian puzzle are finally falling into place: we are signed up for the camp, the ferry from Hirtshals to Stavanger has been booked and I have even got myself a flight back too.
However, the end of the problems I have encountered with this trip only marks the start of the challenges involved with going to Georgia.
The reason I am flying back from Norway is that I am supposed to leave for Georgia the same day I would get back if I took the ferry with the rest of my troop. Taking the plane buys me an extra 12 hours or so. I get back from Norway at around noon on the 13th of July and will set off for Copenhagen airport at noon the next day. This will put both me and our washing machine to the test!
Challenge number two consists of getting hold of some Georgian Lira. This is apparently very difficult. My bank offers me free currency exchange and so I they seemed the best way to go. However, my bank does not exchange Georgian Lira and nor do other exchange companies that I will be in close proximity to before leaving. While fruitlessly trying to order Lira I also decided to order some Icelandic Krona. Hopefully there will be no problems here; though I will have to get Mum to pick them up because I will be in Norway. This should be interesting...
