Early morning run in the country side around Amoy. Drove to Preikestolen and hiked it. The hike was billed as 2 and 1/2 hours but only took 35 minutes. Back on the road by early afternoon ending in Tromoy where my ancestors lived for hundreds of years. <br>

On our way at last! Having held the true destination of the trip a secret for my wife for quite some time now, she still has not a clue that we are not of to the Canary Islands. We cannot wait to see her surprised face when we tell her we are off on a cruise in stead. Still a bit wee early and thus tired, we are off to the airport in Kristiansand an hours drive away.

... Great Britain, Hamburg, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway. But the man's countenance changed not: if he had found a live kitten, I believe he would have laid it in the heap, without making any remark. He went on until the pockets were emptied, and then, giving the trousers a shake, threw them across his arm, and bore them out of the room. When he returned with them, I found he was "Pudsen" (or Boots, for the Norsk word appears to be an adaption of our own). I asked him if he would ...

... made the last ferryman redundant in 1961. Astrid from the museum told me a sory about an English remittance man living outside Stathelle, and it made me wonder if the "brother of the English Lord ______" in Engleholm had also been in the same position? I didn't see any Lemmings, and wondered why JB hadn't known about the suicidal tendencies of thses little rodents. The answer was easy to find : Lemming populations go through ...

Yaya. Tomorrow's the day! Finally I'm leaving for the heat and the beaches! :D Fealing a little anxious today. Got the travel-nerves. Do i have everything i need?? Probably. Only thing i'm missing is my digital-camera-pocket-thingie. The ****ing web-shop sucks, and i still haven't received it. So **** them. I'm realizing now that I'm ...

... Furthermoe, i've done a little more planning. Now it seems, I'll be etravelling around with the crew from Gjeving. This is because Joana, whom I was supposed to hang out with, can't skip schhol as much as she thought. Fine by me, more stuff to see and norwegian-style partying! btw, all this ******** i'm writing is just to test this blogg thingie :P

Yup, its official. Bjørnar backed out, and I'm all alone. Still haven't booked a ticket, but my departure date is set. At least in my head :P March 6th come to me! Thats when im gonna leave this godforsaken weather and head for the sun. I've still got plenty things on my to-do-before-i-leave ...

I only have a few days left in Bota and time has flown by. It has been wonderful to stay in the same place for a little over two weeks and rest, I can´t remember the last time I have had a break longer than a week and normally I race around alot on holidays. I have truly enjoyed the break and appreciated that it won´t be until we arrive in Canada in mid October that we stay again in one place for long. I came not really knowing what to expect, apart from ...

Well, finally on Dec. 22 I got back home to Kristiansand. It's been really nice meeting my friends and family again, I even played a concert the 27th together with my brother and a hip-hop group called Darkside of the Force. The weather is almost unusually cold and the whole city (and country) is covered in snow. Even though it's freezing, it's kind of nice with snow during Christmas.
