Norway

Happy to be away from the daily routine for a while, spending time with my family. Days are spent hiking, fishing, more hiking and enjoying the terrific and scenic landscapes.

A small island in the middle of a wild river which is Øye waterfall.
Spactactular view from our resting place into a lake.
A tetra-pak of chili con carne, withe the norwegian label 'fiksferdig'.
This chili is ‘fiksferdig’ already…
A cotton-wooly lookalike plant, whith unfocused Norwegian mountains in the background.
A small wooden hut cabin from the 1800s which serves as our holiday cottage
If you are larger than 1,65m you will leave many of your brain cells smashed at the ceiling or door entrances.
A toilet raised a 2 layers of brick and standing on a great slab of slate.
The toilet throne (probably had to be raised in order to make the sewage actually flow fown)
A cozy living room in our wooden cottage
If you are talker than 1,70 you will have problems standing upright in the room, not to speak of the door.
Me, sitting on a stone by the sea, with a beer in my hand, and a fishing rod next to me, enjoying life.
A very neat and pretty garden belinging to a neat red house.
This is around 50m from the military zone which is closed. It is one of the best tended-to gardens I have seen.
Three trees that have fallen in a storm, complete with impressive (but flat) roots.
A path leasing through a very green and mysteriously looking forest.
If Little Red Riding Hood just came along this path, I would not be surprised.
2 mushrooms growing on a tree twig full of moss.
A scarily old wooden ladder (with steps partially missing) with an old rope as a handrail, for climbing up a rock on the hike.
View from Storafjellet over the landscape and the sea.
Sky and sea and green grass during our hike.
A lake with the Eldsfjellet peak behind and some heather in the foreground
Another view of landscape on the sea on our way upwards, with a bright blue sky and a few interesting clouds.
Our clothes hanging on a line for drying on the peak of the mountain.
Our family sitting 200m over a fjord and watching the terrific view.
Slottet close to Mo in Modalen is also nicknamed the ‘Little Preikestolen’
A row of 5 very colorful wooden houses.
Høgabu, the wooden hiking hut, in a gray and rainy weather in the midst of the mountains.
We hiked there and stayed for the night.
Our family standing on top of the mountains with a terrific view of all the other mountain peaks
