School surprisingly well done trip to Lifjell




Joronnuten (1276 m)
We started on parking on the base of Himingen with whole class, walked just half an hour and unpacked at the lake Gavlesjå. There were three groups and each one had a task. We learned something about norwegian berries of nature and about first aid, completed some activities and played some games. Our group consisted of 7 boys (were often called "gaygroup") was the best of course and won almost all the competitions.. Let see..
Dinner was good even though the soup was without salt. First time I tryed banana with chockolade in aluminium made on fire-delicious! Next day Torgeir was our leader. On the road we have changed in leading group with the map and compass. For someone it was first experience and I admired most of them - canny classmates. Actually there was an new experience for me: I used to different form of fixing course ( turning tha map to the right position and after find the course on the map) but Torgeir showed us that you can first find the course on the map, then jus overlap N on the circle with N on the body of compass and then you just overlap north needle of compass with N.

beautiful lake Kruvla, the lunch ground
 
This day was nice for me.. a lot of walking. The weather wa great and we walked in very nice anviroment.

After nice walking and not so much waiting for others, we reached the sleeping ground at the lake Holmen. Our group overslept and we built the tent on the inceredible rolling terrain.. impossible to sleep. We have been laughting despite that. After laughting, some voluntairs came out on the near top Joronnuten




Next day was the road back, the ground was wet and very long time without some country road.. Why in Norway? :) I like it.. On this trip I came to know more some people and I'm glad for that. I'm looking forward the next trip.

Honeyweek in Norway

It is realy "funny" story! Mondey, sitting in the school, waiting for afternoon when my fiancée should come here to visit me for one week, planning common time.. Suddenly I receive sms: "Honey, yesterday I came in to having a crutches, I did something with my leg...". I was angry, than disappointed, than confused and than again angry. Of course it was in drunk status. What to do in Norway with the girl with crutches? First time I tought, it gonna be a relly quite week, but when I saw her on the airport, I couldn't hepl myself and everything eas OK. We had a great time here..


 


Especially on our hitch-hiking to Preikestolen, we made a lot of experience. We started on thursday at 11 o'clock and at the 8 p.m.we was pitched a tend close to Priekestolvegen. It's around 350km distance trough the mountain and beautiful nature. One guy took us more than 250km and also towards the ferry.. really nice!




What a guy! Thank you :)

Ferry under the double rainbow











Next day - The Preikestolen day. The guide says "The walk to Preikestolen is partly very steep, you have to be healthy and so on. Nika have had the crutches, so rewrite the guide, we get there and it was amazing, becouse there was not so many people and the wether was good.

We stayed few hours there and than enjoyed the road back. My birthday gift for my fiancée (and also for me) was a night in luxus hotel in Sadnes. First hitch-hike from Preikestolen was interesting, some older people from Argentina took us into the car in spite of being six people in the car.. imagine: Nika, me and our backpacks on the front seat... On the road back we met another nice people and although we started at 1 p.m., we get home at 9 p.m. Got really loves  us! :-)

We also met some dangerous animals :)
 The week was at the end and we spend peacefull sunday in Notodden and close areas. And I really love her!
