Try our Easter Quiz!

 

Here in Norway we are particularly fond of Easter, and have various Easter traditions. We usually go to our mountain cabins, go on skiing trips, eat oranges and Kvikklunsj (our own version of KitKat) and have a great time hanging out with friends and family. Easter this year will be very different to what we´re used to, but we will carry those traditions with us and make new homebound Easter celebrations anyway.

One tradition which is loved by young and old and we are very fond of at Susan Fosse, is the Easter quiz. This tradition we would like to share with you from afar! 

Here are 15 questions about Susan Fosse, Bryggen, Bergen and Easter. Enjoy!
