This one lucky no casualties In the evening of Saturday, 28 December, a KLM Royal Dutch Airlines Boeing 737-800 (registered PH-BXM) operated flight KL1204 from Oslo, Norway to Amsterdam, The Netherlands, when shortly after take-off, the aircraft experienced a hydraulic failure. The crew decided to divert to the Oslo Torp Sandefjord Airport. During landing, however, the aircraft skidded right, off the runway into soft grass, just before reaching a taxiway. No injuries have been reported and passengers evacuated the aircraft by mobile stairs. Emergency crews are responding to the scene. Passengers and crew are being provided assistance as investigations into the incident continue.

Trollstigen, is a serpentine mountain road in Norway - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trollstigen We stopped at the port of Alesund, Norway, while on a cruise. That day was a long cruise stop day, so there was time for us to rent a car, which we did in advance. Originally we were supposed to get a Toyota Prius equivalent. We were given a complimentary upgrade to a BMW 520d Touring model, so good for me. Driving to the Troll Road and back was fun. The hairpin turns look scary, but they were not difficult at all. In fact, I think it is more challenging to drive up to Genting. Nevertheless, the experience was fun. Here is a video I made of the adventure to Trollstigen. Driving down the hairpin turns start at the 8:32 mark. Some more information on the blog post, for all those interested. http://guitar123foodandtravel.blogspot.sg/2014/07/adventure-of-seas-day-9-alesund-part-1.html The BMW 520d Outside a Shell station. The hairpin turns, from the lookout. Not that hard, just drive slowly.

This prison should be called a resort or holiday camp instead. Each 'cell' has it's own bathroom, study table and flat screen TV. Instead of giving inmates 1hr of time in yard daily, they have lotsa activities to keep them busy for the whole day long. http://www.time.com/time/photogallery/0,29....html?hpt=hp_t1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halden_Prison
