Exploring Sweden, Norway and the arctic Svalbard
We are 11-year-old twins and next year from the end of June to the beginning of July we will be exploring Scandinavia and the island of Svalbard with our parents and brother. First we will fly into Oslo from Newark and stay a night at the luxurious Continental Hotel. Then we will fly to Longyearbyen and tour the beautiful island of Svalbard for six days on the splendid National Geographic Explorer. After that we will travel to Norway and Sweden looking at the fjords and exploring Lapland. To finish our trip we will spend a few nights in Stockholm.
