Jenny Woo in Norway
at the FHM Poker
Tour: Part II
I had every
intention on writing
part two of my
Norway trip on
Thursday night, but
I got a little
sidetracked. I had a
very good reason. A
friend
of mine has Dolphins
season tickets (club
seats I might add)
and he wasn’t going
to attend Thursday
nights game.
Overall, he offered
them to moi. Jenny
wasn’t going to let
the tickets go to
waste. So Carrie (my
best friend), her
boyfriend, another
friend, and I went
and watched a great
game. With that
said, I needed just
a couple of days to
recover from that
night. And now
giving you guys yet
another excuse why
you haven’t heard
from me. But like I
said before, “I had
a very good reason”.
Now....Where did I
leave off in my last
article? Oh yes,
good tournament,
awesome
entertainment,
couldn’t get drunk,
lack of sleep, and
let’s not forget
sight seeing. Ok, so
lets continue with
that last part. I
went sightseeing for
about two hours and
it was just enough
time to check out
the some beautiful
sights of Oslo,
including the palace
of the King and
Queen.
As we were there the
crowned price Hakkon
and princess
Mette-Marit, who was
gracefully waving,
were passing in
there motorcade.
What can I say? They
knew Jenny was going
to be in the area.
Bjorn, my travel
guide, told me that
the princess was a
true Cinderella. The
short version of
this story is that
before the prince
and princess met
she was a drug
addicted single
mother. When they
fell in love, the
Norwegian government
strongly objected to
the relationship.
But then the King
stepped in and said
that if they were in
love then so be it.
And now they are
living happily ever
after.......of
course with her
sober and no longer
a single mother.
The guards if front
of the palace in
Oslo were similar to
the guards that are
in front of the
palace in the UK.
They stand straight
making very little
movement and stare
with no expression
on their face. I
almost attempted to
flash one of them,
but one.... there
were kids around and
two..... I wasn’t
drunk. I did however
catch one of them
giving me a little
quick stare. Thank
God for that I
thought I was losing
my touch.
After a refreshing
walk through Oslo,
we met up with some
of the people from
Purple-Lounge
(including Julia and
Diana) in the hotel
to go eat lunch.
That’s when I
noticed poor Julia
not feeling her
best. But she
definitely was a
trooper, I’m sure
thinking that the
show must go on.
From lunch we met up
in front of the
Norway FHM office
where the charter
bus was waiting. We
then embarked on a
three hour non-hung
over bus ride.
Actually, there were
a few more people
tagging along this
trip, including a
few of Julia’s
friends from the UK.
Who were hilarious I
might add. Jenny’s
cheeks hurt from
laughing so much.
We arrived in the
small Norwegian town
called Lillehammer,
just in time for
dinner. But before
we ate we walked
around a little bit
checking out the
scenery. I think the
locals were checking
out there new
scenery as well, I
couldn’t help
thinking all eyes
were on us. WTF?
With food and a few
drinks in our
systems, we were
ready to get the
show going. The set
up was great and the
club came with an
added bonus for the
girls, their very
own cabin to get
ready. In which
later turned into a
little quiet time
room for a well
deserved sick Julia.
I watched the
tournament for a bit
and then finished
the night outside on
the patio laughing
my ass off with
cuties James and
Richard (Julia’s
friends from the
UK).
A little after one
in the morning, we
all boarded the bus
and made our way
back to Oslo. With a
nice little buzzed
tired combo, I had
no problem passing
out when we got back
to the hotel.
Probably a good
thing since I needed
to be up at eight (WTF?)
to catch my flight
back to the U.S.
In conclusion to
this awesome and fun
trip, I wanted to
say a big thanks to
everyone involved.

job and deserve a
long vacation for
this one. A special
