Easter vacation ends

Monday, or 2nd Day Easter as it is called in Norway, ends a 10-day vacation for most Norwegians.�Many returned home�from the mountains or the seashore on Sunday, resulting in long lineups on the roads leading to the larger cities.

Monday's lineups are expected to be even longer. There have so far�been no reports of major accidents in the mountains, or on the roads this Easter, partly due to mixed weather and little snow for skiing many places.

However, tragedy struck in Vester�len, near Lofoten last Thursday, when a small pleasure boat with four people onboard went missing while crossing a fjord in fair weather. As we reported earlier, all four were found dead on Friday.�The crossing usually takes only 15 minutes, and an explanation for the accident has not yet been found.

On the whole, holidaymakers in southern�Norway have had the most sunshine, but there have been some beautiful days on the slopes or at the cabins�also in Northern Norway.
