A cabin trip

Oh for fucks sake, it's almost a month since my last post. Not good, not good...
So in the spirit of being late, here's pics from a cabin trip I tagged along on some weeks ago.

Gorgeous weather, very little snow, one little ski trip where I skinned up and walked down... Evenings spent swing dancing and keeping the fires going. Ended up with +35 degrees celcius inside while the outside kept a snug -20 degrees.

Oh! And a stunning northern light popped up the second evening! Though by the time I scrambled in to get the camera, it had gone away. Doesn't matter, other trip participants managed to eternalize the moment.










The cabin: Vekvessætra....

....and the little toilet house

Easter - part VI

After a bad night's rest in the icecave (note to self: inflate sleeping mat more, waking up with arse touching ice cold rock is not very comfortable), we all went for a ski. As far as I can figure out from maps, I think we skinned up Ottofjellet. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Mari and Elena skinning up.

Katja and Amanda sporting their Aklima wool nettings (very much recommended form all of us). I think that should be Tellbreen in the back left there...

Getting ready to telemark down. And I'm making faces as always. And btw I don't actally know how to tele. Amanda did teach me some very useful stuff the day after this, but this day I mainly just came down by falling.

Now, that's me on the right there, and about two seconds after this photo was taken, I managed too fall as well, straight from where I was standing.

Instaspam

Hey ho! Follow me on instagram. Here's this fall's bunch of my instapics this fall. There's a lot of them. All taken with my little iPod, I have no smartphone. This will be the one and only time I post such an amount of instapics since I've finally put up a little widget on the sidebar instead for future pics. I have to say I'm rather surprised how much better your ipod/iphone pics can get with just some clever little apps. For the record I use Pro HDR, Photogene2, and Diptic.

First: The great outdoors!

































Next: Food and drink















Mmm, liquorice vodka. Yu-mmy!

 

Lastly: misc.

 


















That last pic is the logo of a local physiotherapist's office. Dirty, dirty physiotherapist... :p

Argh, I'd love it if the pics were spaced out more through the post, but it took me look enough just to get them the way they are now. Exterminate Blogger's picture system!
