    Alternatively, you have the translation wrong. What if "hide your children from giants" doesn't mean to hide human children from giants? What if it is advising that children born of giants should be hid from the rest of the world?

    11. Turkey is Norway's primary trading partner, which is why the former nation's mascot is "There Might Be Giants." This dates from the Byzantine-era Varangian Guard motto.

    Oslo is really nice, the Viking Ship museum is really neat.

    I haven't been to Bergen and the fjords but I hear only great stories, on my list as well.
