Bergen pictures, hiking the mount Fløyen

Today we went for a long walk. We started by taking the Fløibanen up to mount Fløyen, one of the 7 mountains surrounding Bergen. After taking allot of pictures we walked down and on the way we stopped for even more pictures....

Our home is down there some where.

And my workplace is down there :-)

This is the note for the Bergen song, i think..

A little panorama picture of bergen

As i say earlier, we used the Fløibanen up to the top, Fløibanen is a funicular who is taking tourists an the ones who is living in the hill side up and down. This wheel was change some years ago and was the main wheel for running the funicular.

We are now allmoust down in city again, and on the way there is a old firestation (Skansen Brannstasjon) overlooking the city.

Thise one i taken only for Richard, who has a thing about Vikings.

At the end.

A journey trough winter wonder land

Now we are home and i found some pictures to share.

This is a big lake close to Sandane, and the following pictures are the same place but by my opinion one picture wasn't enough..

This is the main road to sandane, not to much snow but the ice, you don't see it but it was there

Postbox for one of the locale farmers, really nice.

Then we come to the night pictures, i like taken pictures at night but when it's this cold it take some planing. Last thing i need is condense in the optic.. If you scroll down you can see how cold :-)

Same night but the moon came and say hello

Here is the house, really nice but old house, full of cracks everywhere.

I told you it was cold (Richard, this is cold enough for me) so taking the camera out from the house ore in again, take some planning.

In this old house the heating is basically based on firewood, so when we woke up in the morning this is how the windows look.

The one who woke up first, head to fire up the ovens.

At the end.
