North Europe

I am going to Norway for a tour later this year (Tromso-Kirkness-Tromso) and hear it is really cold. I have waterproof hiking shoes and thermal socks. Should I buy snow shoes? What is the sidewalk situation?

Also, would you recommend and particular ship/excursion with Hurtigruten?

I am getting married and i think i want to tie the knot in Lapland. I visited Pyha last winter and just think it would be perfect. Howewver, I am having difficulty finding photographs of wedding locations. Despite lovely reviews, I wish i could picture the actual wedding venue. I am leaning towards the Kota in Yllas. Help? I'm worried about pictures not turning out well in general...

My husband and I are celebrating our 25 wedding anniversary but our first trip to Norway! I have a week, and been reading but how long do you recommend traveling time and route between Bergen and Oslo. Also what is your opinion of a must see. We're into modern art.

Something pretty cheap but not yucky.

We’ll be leaving Scotland for Wales next month to finish our UK trip. I hear there is a lot of ground to cover but was hoping we could stay in one central place and drive from site to site. Is that possible or should we anticipate lodging a multiple places? We’ll be in Wales for a week.

I didn’t expect to spend over 10 hours in Frankfurt for my layover, but figured since I am, might as well tour the area! I read somewhere that you might need a Schengen Visa? Does anyone have experience with this?

Something fun and real.
