The Nobel Peace price is being awarded this week, while a small town close by is mourning and walking through the cold in a place that seems almost haunted.
"It started with a deadly blast in downtown Oslo that killed eight people. In confusion that followed, the anti-immigrant extremist who detonated the bomb drove roughly 45 minutes to a ferry that took him to Utoya, the scene of an annual summer camp for young members of Norway's Labor Party. He methodically gunned down everyone he could find and killed 69 people, most of them teenagers" -CNN News.
The island that they were visiting was the place where all 69 people were murdered. This is one of Europe's worst massacre masses ever in history.

69 is a lot of people. I hope they recover from this tragedy.
