Ah, so that's what "seediness" means... :-)

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm sure it is listed in the Lonely Planet
guide. I don't want to live directly on KSR, it sounds too noisy.

Lovely! I'll be sure to check it out.
In Norway we have an idiom which reads "butterflies in the stomach",
and refers to the exitement before some event. It pretty much describes
how I feel about going in a few days time. I've never been outside
Europe before. The furthest away I've been is Greece, which, BTW, had
quite expensive LEGO sets. But driving a rented Mini Moke was good fun!
(It's basically a "buggy" version of the Austin Mini. I tried to
capture it's shape in http://www.math.uio.no/~fredrigl/technic/moke/ but
it wasn't too successful.)
