Amazing Polar Sunset

We can't really claim this as a december sunset, as the sun doesnt really rise here, this time of year, but the combination of really cold weather and living north of the arctic circle gave us some amazing afternoon light this past month. These were taken on the darkest day of the year, incidentally the Mayan doomsday;-) Most beautiful doomsday I've ever seen, that's for sure. Wanted to try mobile upload, but I'll post some in better quality later. Enjoy.

Happy New year!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, all you bloglurkers out there. My resolutions? Learn how to play the guitar, swing dancing, blog more and be a better person. Cincerely miss Average Viking!


And, No, I did not figure out how to rotate this picture, when uploading from my cell....*snap*

Easterchristmas?

So, not only is this Norwegian christmasornament black, and about as unmerry as it gets, it's a easter knock off!! Is nothing sacred anymore?!

Northeren lights!

Tonight we had a reDONKulous spectacle of real badass northeren lights. I took these myself, and although I'm not yet very good at taking nighttime shots, you get the idea. I don't have a tripod for my camear yet, so I have to keep very still, and it's real hard when the lights move around so much, but so beautiful. These pics don't capture all the greens and pinks in their full glory, you really just have to experience it. I friggin love this country!

These very blurry lights are regular lamposts.

Roadtrippin

In norway you can buy trolls at the gasstation. Lifelike ones too!! More pics from the trip coming up:-)

Bad photo quality

Sorry about the patterned pics, some of the quality is lost in translation somwhere between the cellphone uploading device and the internet. Sad day.

Viking cow

Road tripping down southwest I made a new friend:-) Baby musk oxes are the qutest!

Now that's a big ass dog!

Fit for a viking:-)

Why trainrides in Norway rock...

It's times like these....

...you need to be on the lookout for Trolls;-)
