The 1st European BigFoot Seminar in Tonsberg, Norway


Yancy and I take off from the West Palm Beach International Airport (PBI), tomorrow around 2:00pm and arrive into New York, New York at the John F. Kennedy airport (JFK) at 5:00pm.


Then we leave at 8:00pm for Reykjavik, Keflavik (KEF) at 6:45am

From there we have a transportation courtesy of Holgers and RUPES to Tonsberg, Norway where the BigFoot seminar is being held.


We leave on Sunday, February 28th at 7:35am from Reykjavik, Keflavik (KEF) and head to Oslo, Oslio Lufthavn (OSL) where we arrive at 11:00am

Then we leave at 2:00pm from Oslo to Boston, Massachusetts (BOS), an arrive there at 5:40pm.

We leave Boston at 8:51pm and arrive into West Palm Beach (PBI) Sunday at Midnight.


To give you an idea as to where Tonsberg, Norway is located, here's some map pictures....

While we're not flying in a straight line from Florida to Norway this picture shows you the distance perspective. Hope you can swim Yancy... :D

Before I leave today I'm packing everything we'll need to shoot the next episode of Competition Ready TV to get it shipped out while we're out of the country.

We're shooting the next episode on Wednesday, March 2nd and flying out for the Chicago, Illinois airport early Tuesday morning. So everything we'll need for this episode including,

Products
Tools
Microfiber towels
Misc items

Will have to be shipped today or tomorrow to ensure it's at our hotel in time for filming next week.


Busy... busy.... busy!


Stay tuned and Yancy and I will be sharing pictures both on the forum and on Facebook so follow along this Norway adventure!

That is a lot of seat time for only 4 days. Enjoy your transatlantic flights. Seems like you log some serious air miles.

I'm sure there will be a lot of photos too. Look forward to hearing about Rupes' products. Keep us posted.
 
Isn't there something wrong with this plan?
- Reykjavik is in Iceland (capital) and from there to Norway you have to take a plane to Oslo;
- Oslo to Tønsberg takes around 1 hour by car;
- the way back, I think it will be Tønsberg-Oslo (car), Oslo-Reykjavik (plane), Reykjavik-Boston (plane), Boston-West Palm Beach (plane);
- aren't there any direct fights to Oslo?
Have a safe trip and enjoy yourselves! :dblthumb2:

It was the only what to squeeze in this trip between filming episodes of Competition Ready. There's only one full day in-between travel dates.

Hoping to not catch any type of cold or flu bug from traveling to or from the destination. Flying in planes with other's that are sick is always a risk.

I always love to see new products, tools and pads. Not sure of everything RUPES will have for us but whatever it is it will be good.

Good luck and stay healthy. I got a cold on my relocation flight so I spent my last two weeks at work sick.

So yeah.... I'm a huge fan of washing my hands often and not touching anything in public places.

Thanks. I get ALOT of spam and just wanted to make sure I did not accidentally delete it.
 
Hey aside from the book, u may won't to load up on vitamins as well. Also make sure to drink bottle water. Sorry to sound like the over protective parent, but we can't have you getting sick. Cause if you do, we may start feeling a little indifferent about our friends over seas....lol
