The first snow of the year has been falling…Cosy to be inside when it’s so cold outside! The winter is going to be long and cold!

May 2009: Some random photos from this month…

The snow has been falling these last days in Norway, and the streets are full of it! Here is a little video from around our house. If you can’t hear what I am saying on the video, I was just explaining that it has been snowing for the last two days…

Today I thought I would show you some photos from the place where we are living, Asker a town with 52 000 inhabitants. Asker is a notably coastal place with many beautiful beaches, but it is also a place of hills and woods. It is famous for being the home of Haakon, Crown Prince of Norway. Enjoy these! (P.S I did not take them myself!)
