Amazing Race Entry 6

Hey it's Redmango! The next location we are going is the Hardangervidda plateau in Norway. The capital of Norway is Oslo. Sweden, Finland and Russia border Norway. The Norwegian Sea, Barents Sea, North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean all border Norway. The GPS coordinates are Latitude: 59° 53' 60 N, Longitude: 10° 40' 60 E. Norway has a humid climate. Also because of the city's northern latitude, daylight varies from more than 18 hours in midsummer to around 6 hours in midwinter. Even though the location is up north the climate is mild through out the year. 24% of Norway in covered in forest.The coastline is fringed with islands. The mountains and plateaus are intersected by fertile valleys. The first settlers that came across Norway lived there about 11,000 years ago. The time period from 800–1066 was and is referred to as the Viking age. The black death arrived in Norway in 1349 killing perhaps half the population. Norway has great fishing. There are 40 species of pike that they fish for. The distance between Chile and Norway is 7,994.68. We flew to Norway. The cost was 1200 dollars. No we didn't have any troubles with our flight. There really isn't that much of a difference between the 2 countries just the difference in location.
