<div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Hi, dear followers! Today has been a wild day, and I can’t wait telling you guys about it. We are still in Toronto. Right now I’m sitting at the cheap hotel room, while Even, Anders and Benjamin are on a strip club… At least that was where they said they were heading to. I’m just tired after this day, and therefore I decided to stay at the hotel, just to relax. So now I’m going to let you guys know what happened today.<o:p></o:p></span></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody>

We quickly decided that we were going to relax today, and just hang around in the town, and maybe buy some gifts for our family. We decided not to make any exact plans, so that we didn’t need to rush with anything.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyzIrBqaPjpRbYb8mcpgYVG2rrmcANB3-VvJloflhEdlejQFHMEj_oq4MRwOBKsjGpcPkophmsabAUo74tMxcsJT9g04q_wLNT5QI5jcW7PbhteZgZTf3-Fph0XJ29boWaDiqHy8Q56wk/s1600/au.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">After the breakfast we made ourselves ready to leave the hotel, and then we went to the bus stop. The bus stop was a rare sight. We had never seen anything like it, and we thought that was pretty cool. But the bus came earlier than expected, so we didn’t really get to enjoy the sight of the bus stop. Luckily for us we managed to take a picture of ourselves by the nice and modern design work.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">When we reached the town of Toronto, we didn’t really know what to do first. Benjamin suggested that we could do some shopping. Benjamin was really excited about this idea, and really tried to convince the other of us to join him shopping. The thought of just to go and see through the stores would normally be boring for me, because I’m not that into shopping, but today I thought it maybe would be fun. Therefore, we started looking for stores, but that wasn’t hard at all. It was plenty of them, all over the place.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Benjamin was shopping like I’ve only seen girls do. Me, Even and Anders were just following him into every store, and actually, I found an umbrella which I bought for my mom. She always asks me to buy her an umbrella, so I decided I finally would make her stop complaining about it.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">It was when we walked out of that store, the craziness started to happen. We, all four of us, were walking silently along the street, when a dog suddenly jumps on my left leg. At first I didn’t really know what to do. The dog was biting and scratching my leg, and all I had in defense was an umbrella. In panic I began poking the dog with the tip of the umbrella, hoping he would let go of my leg. But then I suddenly felt it: The pain that was entering my body. I felt a pain I had never before been exposed to. I fell on the ground somehow, because it felt like I lost control of my left leg. I tried to cushion the fall by planting the umbrella on the ground. Of course, the umbrella couldn’t handle my weight, and it broke on half. When the umbrella broke it made a weird and harsh sound, which made the dog stop biting me, and it ran away.<o:p></o:p></span></div><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; text-align: right;"><tbody>

</tbody></table><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Even, Benjamin and Anders were shocked and didn’t say a word, before they actually realized what just had happened in the last 5 seconds. They helped me back up on my feet again, but the pain was still there, so I just laid down on the ground again, and tried to be calm, while Even made someone call the Emergency centre.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I don’t really remember what happened then, because I blacked out. The next thing I remember was me waking up in a bed at the Emergency centre. Some lady, with a French accent, told me that I was going to be all right, and my wound luckily wasn’t infected. She told me that when I felt ready I could just leave the Emergency centre, but she recommended me to get some rest first. I did, and a couple of hours later we all went back to the hotel.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">So, now I’m sitting here with a bandaged left foot while I’m eating some maple syrup. It’s really refreshing! My foot doesn’t hurt so much now; I just feel some pain now and then. I’m sure it will be all right. What I don’t understand is why that dog attacked me. Also, it didn’t look like the owner of the dog was there while it happened. That will still be a mystery. And I feel a bit mad for breaking the umbrella, but really, that was what made the dog run away (I think…). Maybe it was a good thing that it broke, after all. Well, anyways, now I’m going to bed. It has been a long day, and I struggle to keep my eyelids open at the moment.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Good night!</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p>- Jens</o:p></span></div>alogghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12390364695845112477noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5463386710651877157.post-62464536316069206262010-10-27T15:29:00.000-07:002010-10-27T15:31:57.297-07:00A special experience!Hello everybody, we’ve had a superb day, with a lot of funny, interesting and strange stuff. So first of all, we’ve arrived in Toronto. It was a nice flight, but we are starting to become tired of all the traveling. Fortunately we’re learning a lot of the different cities in Canada, and that’s what we are trying to do. Today we randomly met the Canadian pop artist Justin Bieber, and the funniest part with it, was that he managed to walk into a glass door, right in front of us. Also a paparazzi guy got it all on tape. Probably the funniest thing we’ve seen on this amazing journey, seeing a famous person doing such a mistake isn’t something you experience often. The paparazzi gave us the video clip and we managed to copy it over to our PC, only for our lovely followers and readers. You can see it further down on this post. <br />

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 35.4pt;"><span lang="EN-US">After Justin had spoken to the paparazzi telling about his little mistake, we had a conversation with him, and he actually invited us to perform live with him on Ricoh Coliseum, which is really the main court for “The Toronto Marlies”, a hockey team from Toronto. Standing on a stage with Justin Bieber was a special experience for us, to bring home to our Norwegian friends. The concert was truly amazing, especially since there were almost 10000 spectators, and none of us have ever performed for more than 100 people, even though we just stood on the stage this time. After the concert, we separated with Justin, because we had a lot of things to see here in Toronto.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 35.4pt;"><span lang="EN-US"><br />

<i>Justin and us on stage. SICK!</i><br />
<br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;">In addition to meeting Justin Bieber, we had a little sightseeing round in Toronto because of all the famous landmarks here. First, we had a look at the huge CN tower which was a special sight. As well as its height, it is also very special, because of its appearance. Unlike other skyscrapers, this one doesn’t look like normal skyscrapers at all. It is long, tall and doesn’t have as many windows as other skyscrapers as seen in for example New York. The next thing on our see-list was the Hockey Hall of Fame. Only Benjamin wanted to see the Hall of Fame, because of his passion for hockey. The place was OK; it was a museum, where you could see the most important things from the hockey history, and the best players. I (Anders), Jens and Even were kind of bored, because of our lack of interest for the hockey sport. But Benjamin had nagged and begged to see the museum since we left Norway. </span><br />

He has talked about the silly game golf the whole weekend. So we went to Ottawa Hunt and Golf Club so Jens could play a round. We watch him play against Yani Tseng and Se Ri Pak who is two awesome female golfers. They owned him, and at the last hole Se Ri Pak finished with a lovely hole in one. Jens was in a pretty bad mood for hours after the match, and wasn’t happy before we went in to this cafe. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br />

We watched Ottawa Senators vs. Toronto Maple Leafs. Every seat was taken, and the sound level was incredibley loud. I have only seen NHL matches one the television, and couldn’t even imagine the atmosphere around the matches. People was shouting and crying. And some was even angry and some happy. At least Ottawa Senators won, and most of the people walking out of the arena afterwards were happy. This was a wonderful experience, and I would really like to go back for even more. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br />

This is most likely due to Toronto’s population and popularity. With Toronto’s population of over 2.500.000, it is the city with the highest population. Toronto is located very close to the American border, on Canada’s “arm” as seen on the map. In 2002 a newspaper called “The Economist” listed Toronto the number fourth best city to live in, due to their low crime rate, good environment and a high standard of living.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">There are many reasons to visit Toronto. One of them is the CN Tower which is a 553 meters high building. It took 26 months to build the CN Tower and it was opened on June 26, 2006. The tower is a symbol of Canadian industrial achievement. The Royal Ontario Museum is also a reason to visit Toronto. In this museum you can explore the natural world and human cultures past. Toronto Zoo is a huge Zoo with over 5000 animals. It was opened in August 1974.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCMysDF4CP9anLxdyWYoI5JMZ5yq-sS9NlgvPbA8eQ8cyLVffODy4aocW0qOv2Yj1stPwe2JjiaEI0yNYEEo_B0RxEJzjBYscwYK3y-76YNbhBNre_lz5pVLOsHcvKl_L29bo3_bZqOpk/s1600/Religion.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="177" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCMysDF4CP9anLxdyWYoI5JMZ5yq-sS9NlgvPbA8eQ8cyLVffODy4aocW0qOv2Yj1stPwe2JjiaEI0yNYEEo_B0RxEJzjBYscwYK3y-76YNbhBNre_lz5pVLOsHcvKl_L29bo3_bZqOpk/s200/Religion.JPG" width="200" /></a>A survey done in 2001 showed that 77 % of the Canadian population are Christians, and 16 % are non-religious. The most of the Christians are Roman-Catholics (around 45 %), and the rest is generally a part of the Protestant Christianity. There are also other religions practiced in Canada like; Islam, Judaism, Buddhism and Hinduism. However, these religions are not very widespread in Canada, and compared to the Canadian Christianity, they are not practiced by as many.</div><br />
Canada is a country with acceptance for different religions. There is no official religion in Canada, and it’s important for the Canadian politics culture that every religion is equally treated. This is the reason for the many religions appearance in Canada.<br />
<br />
For some time ago, the Christianity was central and took place in the everyday of most Canadians, because the Christianity was integral in the Canadian society, but this has now changed. Today Canada can be considered as a secular country. Maybe most Christians don’t go to church as often as they did before, but they still consider themselves as Christians. <br />

</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">What’s up our lovely followers? I’ll tell you what’s up here. Nothing! Absolutely nothing. The other guys have hit the sheets, but I’m not that tired. I should be although. Because after we landed in Canada we have seen and done so much. Nevertheless, I can’t fall asleep. So I’m going to write a little diary for you, about our first day in Canada.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal">The whole experience started quite badly. The trip over to Vancouver went fine, but when we went to pick up our luggage things started to go more badly. You guest it. We had lost our four bags. We immediately confronted the staff at Vancouver airport, but it was no good. They promised us to track the luggage, but for now we had to live without them. I tried to keep the spirit up, but that is a tall order when you are traveling with Jens, Anders and Benjamin. Jens got so mad he kicked a lamppost on the way out. Witch leaded to even more misery for him, and his right big toe. We found a taxi and headed of to the hotel.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><br />

</span></div><div class="MsoNormal">Even the hotel wasn’t good enough. Anders comes from a rich and wealthy family, and is clearly not used to sleeping on hotels with a bit lower quality. Nevertheless, Benjamin and I convinced him to give it a shot. And based on the fact that we were only going to use the room for getting some rest, he took the “chance”.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal">Since Vancouver is one of my favorite cities in the whole wide world, I quickly took responsibility for the day. And the boys respected me for that. To a certain level at least. As you may remember, Vancouver hosted the Winter Olympics earlier this year. And I was nearly going, but that was not my destiny. So I ended up in front of the TV as everyone, instead of being there and feel the action. I was so disappointed, but this time I was determined to at least see the stadium and location were it was hosted. Nothing could stop me. Not even my traveling accompany.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><br />

</span></div><div class="MsoNormal">So we got ourselves a cab and headed for the Olympic stadium. During the ride all three of my fellow companions complained about the fact that they hadn’t chanced clothes. I wanted to disagree with them and give them a mouthful, but I agreed with the three boys. Yesterday had been rough, with a long preparation before this trip. I could use a shower and a new boxer.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The conversation quickly switched over to a more comfortable theme. We discussed what the rest of the journey would bring. Benjamin was excited about going to Ottawa. It wasn’t a must for me, but he wanted it so bad. Jens and Anders only talked about a famous gamer from Canada. Time flue by, and before we knew it, the Olympic stadium was right up in our faces. The stadium and the locations were amazing. And I guess the guys were happy after all.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><span lang="EN-US">Canada’s Flag is probably one of the most recognizably flags in the whole world. It is called the Maple Leaf, because of the big maple leaf in the center of the flag. This leaf is there to represent and symbolize the nature in Canada. The leaf has eleven edges, and someone thinks it is because of the 10 provinces in Canada plus one for the territories, but no. They found out that a leaf with eleven edges is the least blurry during strong wind. Therefore, eleven edges. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCGyxhh8P52CX9IdEX3S4q6Au-T-Gmy1gfCNQZtapt0EsVSaUFjNtVHaPcSq_9ieIrLIwTq224efRF_JW57YDHMr70k-hX7qaUe1gkhyphenhyphen9zSkF_kbgGPR_IrPALUesmdO9FvmBpkI0YOQo/s1600/flag_canada.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCGyxhh8P52CX9IdEX3S4q6Au-T-Gmy1gfCNQZtapt0EsVSaUFjNtVHaPcSq_9ieIrLIwTq224efRF_JW57YDHMr70k-hX7qaUe1gkhyphenhyphen9zSkF_kbgGPR_IrPALUesmdO9FvmBpkI0YOQo/s320/flag_canada.gif" width="320" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><span lang="EN-US"><i> - The maple leaf</i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><span lang="EN-US">The flag is separated in to three squares.

<br />
What's up our lovely followers? This is the first post on our blog. We're a group of 4, containing Anders, Even, Benjamin and Jens. Right now we're at the airport, and I'm looking at Anders who is determined to get a free cup of coffee from the Narvesen shop, but it doesn't seems like he's going to get that. I(Jens), Even and Benjamin are just laughing at him for being so pathetic. Haha! We're enjoying our last meal in Norway for quite a while also. We got no plans for this journey, it's all just improvising. All we know is that we'll be heading to Canada. We will do our best to upload loads of both fascinating facts and enjoyable experiences in and about Canada. We promise you will see a lot from us in the future, on this blog. See you later; we have to catch our plane. It leaves in 15 minutes, so we're in a bit of hurry!<br />
