Vetten Opp mountain race



   
420 metre height difference, 3,8 km distance and an average 11 degree angle uphills. Poor Linda and Anders visiting from Gällivare was enrolled to this race. It's very different, but for some reason lots of fun. All of us did very well and two hours after we all talked about next years race!

Fantastic Norway


Oliver have asked to make his own sushi for a long time. Today we had some hours for our selves so we did it from scratch. Such talents! They turned out really nice. Could it be the view from the kithen table that made it?

Even if North of Norway isn't the place for sunbathing and swimming it doesn't mean there's no beaches. There's many smaller almost tropical beaches hidden away just next to the mountains that's lots of fun to play on. Many hours was spent on this beach just around the corner from the cottage.
This position was taken very often during our stay in Norway. Either with the morning coffee when you woke up before everyone else. Can't say what it is exactly that makes this place my absolute favourite. The view, when the porpoise family is jumping in front of you, the sea eagle is catching it's dinner or when a fisherman is setting out his fishing net simple does something to me and my wellbeing. It's something that I can't really explain. It's just total relaxation and I love it!
