Reasonably often in Norwegian folktales, a great distance is described in terms of "bluings" (my coin; Norwegian: blåner). To a novice, this term may be confusing. But once in a while, the explanation is presented in nature.

I took this picture as we were flying into Oslo last night. I count up to nine bluings, which is even farther than the seven spoken of in the folktales.
