Lofoten’s beauty

After a week up north it’s time to head south again. I’ll be celebrating Christmas with my uncle, aunt and two year old cousin like last year. I wonder if he’ll find out who Santa is this year too. Last year myuncle, his dad dressed up as Santa and came to deliver sone gifts. We thought he wouldn’t know who it was but as when we asked where his dad were he pointed right at him, recognized by the watch he wore all the time.

My brother is driving me up to the airport. The same two and a half hour drive as last sunday and on friday when we followed Dina to the airport. It’s only 3:30 pm and the sun is long gone. Instead the moon is shining from a clear sky down on the snowy mountains and reflecting in the calm fjords. I would take a picture so that you guys could see how beautiful it is, but the camera on my phone just isn’t good enough. The only thing that would make it better now is if the Northern Lights showed up…

I haven’t had time before, so here are some pictures I took the day mom and I drove Dina to the airport. I had to get up at 7 am.

Way too early for me, so I was kinda grumpy until I got something to eat and saw how beautiful it was outside. The sun didn’t come above the horizon, but it was like a suspended sunrise. The sky got brighter and brighter and was colored in red and orange.

I’ve had a nice week with my family. See you all again in January :)

Bored? Far from it

It’s already been two full days up here and I never expected them to go by so fast! Dina and me haven’t even had the time to be bored much. We’ve said hi to my grandparents and met some of my friends. We went to see the Hobbit with my little brother and it was amazing! I’ve again been proved how much he is like me. In the middle of the movie, he had to hold the popcorn for about 5 minutes but somehow he managed to get half of it on the floor! Not to mention when we were getting in the car. I got in the back because I figured we couldn’t all sit in the front seat while Dina and my brother went to the other side. He opened the door and before he got in, Dina were sitting in the front seat. We also went Christmas shopping… a few gifts done, still a lot more to go!

I love being back home and not having to worry about going grocery shopping, what to make for dinner etc., because mom fixes all that. And If I need to get somewhere there’s usually three cars outside of the house! What a luxury to be home.

Another thing that keeps me and Dina from being bored is the endless pillow fights we’ve had. I’m a little surprised that nothing have been broken as often as the pillows fly through the room, and not reaching whatever target it was supposed to.ImageHow is your Christmas break so far?

Home, sweet home :)

I’m home! It took me ten hours from the time I left the house in Moss until I got inside the door at home, but I made it. It feels great. My mom had made pizza and a cake, so I’m not only happy and tired, but full too :p

I just love it when the train company make me stress for no reason. It turned out that both of the trains I were to take went as normal. Why couldn’t NSB just tell me that? Anyway, I made it to the airport with a couple of hours to spare. and except for my phone dying while I waited for my friend and the plane being so full that we weren’t able to sit next to each other, nothing exciting happened. Oh, yeah, it was a little delayed due to snowfall. More waiting.

To not bore you guys, I’ll finish this post now with a picture of me and my friend from two years ago. Yes, it’s the best one I could find, which just proves that it’s time to find my camera to get some more recent pictures
