tid og rom

Summer is come, and with it the season for the maddening logistics associated with travel in the North-West corner of Europe. I recall having had this conversation a few years ago. Needless to say, it took place over a long-distance telephone connection.


God dag. Har du et rom ledig 4.-11. juni?

Enkelt eller dobbelt?

Enkelt.

4.-11. juli?

Ja, 4.-11. juni.

Skal vi se. Ja, det har vi: enkelt rom 4.-11. juli. Vil du bestille nå?

Ja, takk.

Navn?

osv.


I leave imagining the ensuing trials visited upon the jetlagged traveler upon her arrival as an exercise for the reader.

Oops...
Not a lot of fun I imagine.
Hopefully this summer's travel to the North-West corner of Europe starts a bit more pleasantly than this one did.
