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..

Frozen lake and mountains

Frozen lake, mountains and fog

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

Postbox for one of the locale farmers, really nice.
Snow on tree

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.
House in winterland

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.
soo cold -14

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.

Cabaret in Sandane.

Yesterday we vent to the local theater, it's a new building and the opening play was CABARET.(Link in Norwegian) For the one who don't know, it's a play written in 1966 and is about about 1930 Germany (Berlin) 
and the night Cit Cat Club ??

The actors are the local school, art class, and they did a very good acting. Some better then others but all in all, a very good play.


I have taken allot of winter pictures, both day and night but i think i save them for later posting.  For now i only post this one from Cabaret

Long weekend in winter norway

Yesterday we jumped in the car and drove up to Sandane, to visit my wifes famely. We are going to stay till monday and i'm going back to work on tuseday..
Up her in Sandane it's allot of snow and the temperature is low, and it gives me the opertunety to take some winter motive pictures, i hope..
But lets talk about something else first. Our car a SAAB 93 and it's a fantastic car, run smooth and it gives us all the security and comfort we need, but!!
Nothing last for ever i noticed yesterday that there is something wrong with the cooling system, the valve (thermostat) for the water is not shutting and the temperature is so low when driving.
At least now i know why it is using so much gasoline :-) the usage is up to 1,2 litre pr mile (10 km) and befort it was 0,75 litre.
I have some work to do, when we come home..

Lately I've been working om my new project, a home theater build of a desktop computer running on Linux-Mint and it's working pretty good. There is one problem it's almost not possible to stream TV shows from the Internet.
I've tried everything but i can't make it work, i asked everyone i know but the where no help to get. But there was help to get :-) Kyle from the (Blogspot) world Replied to my call and give me some advice. There is only one thing to say to him, thank you Kyle my Blogspot friend. i haven't installed Wine yet but I'm going too, when i come home.
Hopefully then i can watch streaming TV on my media center..

I don't have any pictures to day, ore maybe i do. 
Just took it with my mobile.
See you later.

It's a nice place with shopping mall, walking street and, old nice buildings. One day i'm going to put in the pictures of that too, but today i want to show you some of the others i took.

This one is from one of the farms we where passing on the way.

In the walking street there was this little corner, called KLEMMEKROK. If i translate to English it's going to be something like (Hug Corner) If you ever need an excuse to hug the one you love, you kan take them here :-)

Lazy days (Summer vacation)

Not so much to tell.
We are enjoying the days, relaxing and eating :-)

Pictures? Not to many, it's a small place and I'll think i showed you most of the place all ready. But of curs i have some...

I've been doing allot of work on my vacation, my mother in law is saving the work for me. It's actually pretty nice, i don't get bored.. :-)
I've been fixing and moving the satellite disk, fixing some crashed computers, tighten up some furniture and one of the days I'm going to do the lawn..

But now over to the pictures.... I found some!
Eidfossen, a small but powerful waterfall and the building on the left side is a power plant.
(On the picture above, it's not rain. It's the shower from the waterfall that was making me and the camera wet)
Laksetrapp, because of the dam at the top of the waterfall, the salmon cant get up. To make it easier or possible for the salmon to continue they build a canal for the fish to get up (laksetrapp)
This is where the Trolls are living :-)
This day it was cloudy and the light in the forest got so mystic and i had no problem believing in the fairy tails about the Trolls

This church is in a nearby village called Reed, a small place with a church, pub/bar and grocery marked + camping..
