A TRIP TO A NORWEGIAN SUPERMARKET


Me and some friends travelled to Norway for a school trip. We were in Hokksund for a week, and because of an exchange we were living with a norwegian family. We visited the city, discovered new places and met new and nice kind people and we went to the Norwegian high school too.
One of that days, we were supposed to have a break after English classes. When the class had finished, my friends and I wanted to go to the supermarket to buy some chocolate for our families. In Norway, everything is really expensive, so we were looking for the cheapest shop. First, we looked at a small supermarket called Rema but we decided to continue the search.
We walked through the cold and white snow, and after five minutes we were in other supermarket called Kiwi, but the chocolate was even more expensive. After considering the options we had, we saw other friends walking across the frozen street and we decided to join them. They were looking for chocolate too and knew a shop which had a big discount. One of them was guiding us with the telephone, because he had asked it for the direction of the place. It took 25 minutes walking through the snowy city until we arrived at an enormous shopping center. In the way, we saw an old woman mounted in a type of sledge. We got surprised to see an elderly person skating in the street. We thought that it was the typical  Norwegian shopping basket, prepared for the snow places.
In the shopping center, we entered into the first food shop we met. And the chocolate was at double prize! So we asked the cashier about the discount we had heard and he directed us to a small shop next to that one. Then, we could buy four chocolate bars for one hundred crowns (like ten euros). After that, we could leave the mall with our bags full of tasty sweets.
Then, we realized that we had to meet the teachers in fifteen minutes and it took twenty five for arriving there! Some of us started running to be on time at the school. We saw the old woman with lots of bags in her sledge again and we laughed at that situation. One boy wanted to arrive earlier and decided to take a shortcut, so he started walking in the snow. But he didn't know that under that white layer, there was one metre of snow hidden so, in two seconds he had sank his body in the snow. We were all laughing at him because of the cold and the -8ºC of the place.
After that curius jorney, we achieved the goal we wanted. We arrived on time and could join the rest of the class with our trophies made of sweet and tasty chocolate.
Visiting new places can be really interesting and satisfactory for everyone. It also helps you to get on better in an unknown city. That can be not only a situation to be brave, but also it makes you feel comfortable with your way and especially, when you are with other people, so you pass fun times and enjoy all together those adventures of your life.
