Last weekend we drove north.
We had many spectacular picnics.
I love the colours of the lichen and the clouds.
In the evening, the river spun moonlight.
And all in all, it was magical.

Here’s another view of the Bingley chimneys. And the semi-frozen canal. The ducks promonade around here much as they do in Halden. The thesis chugs along. I reckon I’ll get it finished in early February, or possibly late January. I got my chapter one (extension of intro) nearly written. I felt like I was juggling [...]

The snuggle-car ventures south
past chilled autumn lakes
to the Swedish coast
where strange plants bloom
and the sky is everywhere.

Last night we drove the snuggle-car down to the lake. We want to take it camping next weekend, and it’s finally ready! Very exciting. Tonight we rode our bikes down there – 30k. Couldn’t keep up with the lovie, need to get faster.

Here is a wonderful construction created by the very clever Michael. To view it, click play, but then click pause and wait till it’s fully loaded (when the red line is all the way across). This could take a few minutes, but it might be very fast. Then you can press [...]

Wow. This really is an amazing country. We got back yesterday from Geilo (pronounced yeilo), which is in the Hardangavidda national park. The snuggle-car did us proud, and drove us over a snow-covered mountain plateau, over mountain passes and through twisting, winding tunnels (one was a spiral, and another was 25k long!), along fjords, frozen [...]

The snuggle-car is back in action! For its untimely demise, see clunk cluck clunk. This next photo is proof of how happy we were before it broke down last Saturday:We got it back yesterday, the third day the mechanic told us it ‘might be ready’. Luckily it finally was, and now we can drive to [...]

Well, it started well. We took the snuggle-car out for a spin. We decided to drive down to Ikea in Goteborg. That’s right, a real Swedish Ikea! Goteborg is about 180k south of here, so it’s about the same distance as Oslo but a much nicer drive. The plan was to get a futon and [...]
