Bet they're not bothered by too many tourists!
Player #desone
Player #232652, I think it's beautiful, but I won't be going there! That much cold doesn't sound fun at all. 😉 anyone else agree?

Just wondering, cremation for the dead or a mausolem? Bodies can not just be lying around.

Laura, I'm sure if it's happening, it's happening. even the extremely small community hospitals in northern Ontario are prepared if it happens
Alex
ii bet the crime rate there is almost zero

Dreams, Births aren't allowed where I live either (a town of a few thousand in northern Canada). We have doctors and a small hospital, but no maternity facilities. Expectant mothers have to spend their last month of pregnancy elsewhere, at their own expense.

I visited Norway during the Winter Olympics in 1994, and again in summer of 1995. We stayed at a cabin owned by the family of my girlfriend for a few days. It didn't have running water or electricity. We kept the food in a subterranean spot where you would open a trap door in the floor to access it. The outside temperature made it so you didn't need ice to keep food from perishing. Very cool experience.

Dead people are taken off the island and sent to Norway. The Global food store is also on the island.

Player #desone, I agree. That's why I live in AZ.

That looks like the place where Queen Lateefa (ms) went in one of her movies. It was at Christmas time and you had to be flown in to this huge, awesome Resort. She was going to take her own life, etc. It had LL Cool J too, I think. Beautiful place!!!
Snarki
F8os6s13, I was wondering, also.
