Today I cancelled my trip to Norway.

No amount of optimism is going to change the fact that things are a mess right now, and... Well, you know. I probably wouldn't even be able to get into the country. There's just no way this trip is happening this year.

Hopefully next year will be a better time. Or the year after that.

I'm disappointed, but I won't lie, I'm kind of glad that I don't have to worry about whether or not I'll be able to go any more.

(And now I have a whole extra year to work on getting into shape. Maybe next year I'll be able to entertain the idea of hiking Preikestolen with my friend, instead of dismissing the idea outright? :D )

So. There we are.

Aw, man. I'm so sorry, Yuu. But I think you made the right call, in the end. Every country's handling things differently over here but I strongly suspect we're all looking at a second wave in the fall which I think was around when your trip was? Anyway, it's not looking great enough to keep a booking.

But! A Preikestolen hike does sound brilliant. Those pictures make it look like you're on the edge of the world with that sudden cliff. Something to look forward to :D

It'll be fab whenever it happens! Probably a lot of us are saving up this year by not travelling so hopefully 2021 will be a load of fun for a bunch of people. I hope you'll keep posting your investigations of Cool Norway Things To Do as you google+plan :D

not that I too now am considering future Norway trip but damn, those fjords tho,

:( That is a bummer. The right decision, most likely, but - a bummer.

It is very sad! I hope you're able to go in 21/22.

And yes, an extra year of preparation is definitely one way to spin it into a positive!

Oh, man. At least it's done, as you say, and no more worrying.

It's probably the right thing to do, but that still really sucks. I hope that when things are better and you are able to go, you have a great time. And that looks like quite the place to do a hike.

I'm sorry that you had to cancel, but as a friend who was supposed to come visit this month said, "The country won't disappear". Actually not having a trip planned for this summer was the only comforting thing here, all is still so blurred. (We might have a chance to travel in Europe but it's still not recommended and to date I am still not allowed to leave France.)
Hopefully it will let you time to figure out some very nice things to do for the next time :)
