We appear before them in a blink of an eye!!

“You’re back!! How did it go?”

“It was great, your highness. We have a great story to tell you.”

“Then let’s hear it. This is a quiet location here.”

“Yes, sir.”

Brianna, the fairies and I repeat what happened when we arrived at Asgard. They are glad that my quest is over with.

“Now we can do some touring for the next three days.”

Then all of a sudden my stomach begins to growl at a low level, “grrrrooo — - oooowwwwll.”

“Wasn’t that your stomach growling, Richard?”

I put my hand to my stomach, “Uh, yes sir. Apparently that fight with Thor took a lot of energy.”

“Then let’s have lunch. I bet you are famished!! We’ll have it at the castle.”

“Yes, sir.”

“You were gone from here for about fifteen minutes, Richard. After lunch it will be time to visit some museums. We’ll visit another site tomorrow morning.”

“Yes, Mr. Pierre.”

We all walk back to the cars. The drivers take us back to the Castle in Oslo. We have a great lunch. I ended up eating twice what I would normally eat for lunch. That fight with Thor really did zap my energy level.

While we are at the castle, Brianna, the fairies and I are escorted to a separate room. This will allow us to change clothes for the afternoon. Also it is the best opportunity to send the armor and the swords back to the cabin in Mt. Blanc, North Carolina by magic.

****
In case you’re wondering readers, did I leave Ryujin back at Asgard? His memory image disappeared once we left Asgard to fly back to Earth.

****

We all change our clothes quickly. We recite cleaning spells on the satchels and the fairies’ clothes boxes. Now all of the clothes are clean and smelling wonderful.

Once we get situated with the coats and the satchels, the fairies quickly fly back into the coat pockets. They get comfortable quickly; soon their heart beats are in tune with ours.

We exit the room and rejoin the others. We make a date to have dinner with the king on the last night before we leave Norway. Mr. Pierre and his chauffeur drives us to two museums for the rest of the afternoon.

The first one is the Viking Ship Museum. On display are two ancient Viking ships from the ninth century. Also on display are small boats, sledges, a well made cart from the era, implements, tools, harness, textiles and household utensils.

The next museum we went to is the Kon-Tiki Museum. This museum shows the several reed boats built by Thor Heyerdahl. He proved how men navigated the rivers and the seas to their destinations before travel became available before the saddle and the wheel.

After the seeing the museums, we do some food minor food shopping for the next several days. I buy some more unsalted nuts and dried fruit for the fairies. We also purchase some breakfast food as well. When we get back to the hotel, we get ourselves cleaned up really well with a hot shower. We also make a reservation to eat at a restaurant in Stavanger for tomorrow night. From what we heard, there is a lot to do there. The restaurant itself has a tropical garden setting. There is Pulpit Rock nearby with a great view of the fjord there. Once we heard that it is a 3 to 4 hour hike to the rock, we decided to do the 3 hour cruise of the Lysefjord instead.

The fairies stayed in the hotel room while we have our dinner in the main restaurant of the hotel. I open the sliding window a crack. This will allow them to flutter down to us after we have eaten our dinner.

We find the security staff did a much better job in keeping the curious eyes from bothering us. The four of us have a great fish dinner in the restaurant. Afterward, we take a walk in the gardens. There we find our fairies already waiting for us in butterfly mode. They flutter from flower to flower to have their fill of sweet nectar. We meander through the garden for about an hour. Finally, the sun sets at 10 PM. Once we see the sunset and the stars come out, the fairies quickly flutter into our coat pocket in a secluded part of the garden.

We get back up to our room. The fairies flutter out so we can all get ready for bed. We have the alarm set for 6 AM again. Just before we fell asleep, Brianna gives me that extra special night as she promised. She touches me in the right places to bring me to a mild erotic high. I return the touches upon her. We both kiss and snuggle up to each other. Then we fall asleep under the covers. Everyone gets a great night of sleep. We experience peaceful dreams through out the night.

~~~000~~~

In the morning, the alarm sounds out loud at 6 AM!! “BZZZZZZZTT!!!”

I quickly reach over to it and turn it off. We get ourselves out of bed relatively quickly. We have our bowl of cereal, fruits and nuts. The fairies have their own breakfast with the nuts, dried fruit and honey-water to drink.

We get ourselves cleaned up and dressed for the day. We are ready to go at 7 AM. I make sure that the fairies’ satchel is filled with what we need. The digital camera, batteries, memory cards, the crystals, the food for the fairies, etc. The fairies are resting in our multi-coat pockets. The chauffeur takes us to the Oslo Airport. There we board a smaller plane and fly to Stavanger on the West Coast of Norway. We arrive there at about 9 AM. Mr. Pierre then rents a car for the day. We arrive at the docks in plenty of time. We board the boat at 10 AM. We find ourselves with twenty other people with us on this short cruise. The fairies quickly realize they won’t be able to fly about to get their exercise. It is very windy while we cruise the Lysefjord. We know they can handle the windy conditions. It turns out this boat cruise is not private.

You’ll get your exercise at the restaurant afterwards.

You’re welcome my fairies.

They take a peek out of the coat pockets. They are amazed in seeing the beautiful scenery of the fjord. I use my digital camera to record what we are seeing. Then we hear the tour guide tell several stories about the fjord and the region. They ranged from long ago battles to the modern battles with the oil industry off the coast of Norway. When it becomes noon time, we slip some nuts and dried fruit pieces into our pockets. The fairies quickly accept the pieces to keep their energy up.

When the boat tour ends, we get into the car. The chauffeur takes us to the tropical flower restaurant. It is called Flor & Fjaere. We discover it is located on an island. We take the smaller boat to the island. Once we get there, we are quickly mesmerized by the setting. The fairies quickly flutter out in butterfly mode. Soon, they see that the Balder and Jenz group is there as well.

Balder and Jenz, you are here.

Yes we are, Tiger. This is one of our favorite places to stay during the warm months.

They quickly get their exercise by flying all over the garden and sipping on the sweet nectar from the tropical flowers.

The four of us are warmly greeted by the staff at the restaurant.

“It is an honor to meet and serve you, Mr. Moore. Thank you for saving our money.”

“You’re welcome.”

We are escorted to an outside table with four chairs. It has a lovely view of the garden.

We order what we want from the menu. It is brought out to us in stages. We leisurely eat our evening meal in about an hour. After that, we walk the foot path in the tropical garden. We enjoy the heady feeling of smelling the different flowers in the garden. The butterflies follow us as we walk through garden. We can tell, the fairies are thoroughly enjoying this experience.

After another hour there, it is time to go back to Oslo. In a secluded area, the fairies flutter into our coat pockets. Quickly their heart beats are in tune with ours. We take the boat back to the mainland. Then chauffeur takes us to the airport. We board the smaller plane and fly back to Oslo. When we get at the hotel, we see the sun is getting ready to set. We walk among the garden there to see the sun set. Then the stars are shining brightly in the night sky.

Once we are back in the room, we get ready for bed. This will be our next to the last night in Norway. Tomorrow will be spent in visiting several other museums.

After another great night of sleep, we get ready for the day. We visit several other museums in the area. Then for lunch we visit an outdoor restaurant seating area. After lunch, we visit two more museums. At four in the afternoon, we go back to the hotel to get ready for our state dinner with the King of Norway. We put on our best clothes for this dinner.

We are given a special escort to the Castle. The limo shows up to retrieve the four of us. The fairies have decided to stay near the gardens around the Castle, while we are inside having our dinner.

We are treated to a grand dinner setting from the King. After the dinner, we make our way to a library area. There, I discuss what the next generation 3D server will be.

“That’s impressive, Richard. So, your new computer system will be the foundation for the AIVAS system. What data files will be on it?”

“Well, I think it should have a very broad range of different topics. It must cover everything a fledgling landing site will need. It must be from A to Z in all subjects.”

“Yes, they must be able to diagnose any bio hazard problem they come across.”

After another fifteen minutes of talking, the bigger question is asked. “So how are you going to get back to the USA, Richard?”

“Well, the previous trip was helped by a good friend to get the fairies there.”

“You might as well accept my offer, Richard. We’ll transfer the money you spent for the tickets and give a private flight back to USA.”

Brianna and I look at each other. “Well, it has been done before with Mr. Pierre’s help.”

“That is right, Richard.”

So, the arrangements are done with a few phone calls. We’ll be getting a private flight back to Charlotte, NC. The extra cost is shared by Mr. Pierre and Norway. I also call Brianna’s dad for our estimated time of arrival.

We are driven back to the hotel for our final night in Norway. We watch the last sunset in Norway. Then we go to bed by 11 PM. We set the alarm for 6 AM. We get another great night of sleep during the night.

In the morning, we get ourselves ready for the flight back. The chauffeur takes us to the Oslo’s international airport by 9 AM. We get on board a private jet that is slightly larger than Mr. Pierre’s jet. We give our hugs to our hosts.

“Thank you for a wonderful experience, Richard. It was fantastic.”

“You’re welcome, Mr. Pierre. We’ll see each other again.”

“That we will. I look forward in seeing your new 3D main frame in action.”

We get our luggage aboard the private jet. Once we are settled in, the fairies flutter out of the coat pockets to check out the jet. We discover there is a separate bedroom on the jet.

Once the plane is in the sky and flying to the West, we retire to the bedroom. We need to make sure we are well rested during the flight back. It takes about 7 hours to get there.

Once we arrive, I contact Brianna’s dad right away on the cell phone. He tells us he is waiting for us at the exit area from International flights. We get luggage checked out by the security. The fairies quickly stay quiet during this time. Once we are cleared, Larry greets us on the other side.

We get the luggage loaded up in his car. He takes us to Mount Blanc, NC. From there, I contact Mr. Bryson. Brianna also makes a call to the Rescue Mission.

We discover, it is now time for some new changes in our lives. How are we going to do this with us working and living in two different cities?
