By our favourite jetty is the cutest little boat shed. We often have picnics there in Summer. It’s nice to just drop by our favourite places in Winter to see how very different but very beautiful everything still is.
My Little Norway
2010 Calendar
Reindeer herding is more than just an occupation, it is a way of life and an integral part of the Sami culture and identity.
Many Norwegians know what they are doing when they pick wild mushrooms. This knowledge is passed down the family during mushroom hunting trips. The hard-core mushroom hunters go into the mountain wilderness for days to get the best finds.
Towards the water in a beautiful pocket of leafy oak trees is the Byneset Church.
Celebrate National Fårikål day with us. On the last Thursday of September every year Norway celebrates their national dish with, of course, all you can eat fårikål!

However, the outside of Nidaros Cathedral is even more intriguing when you know the history.

Love the icicle picture! It’s such a different world from where I live in Phoenix. I enjoy viewing it though through the lens of your camera.

I love frozen waterfalls. Hopefully I’ll be able to take some pics when we go to Alta.
Such beautiful photos! So very serene and the colours are magnificent. I love snow and ice, it always makes everything seem so magical.

In Oz we would put spray frost on the windows at Christmas but we don’t have to do that here – it’s all real!
Hope things are ok for you in South Brazil – I’ve heard about the floods.
