Korketrekkeren = madness!

The video explains it all:

Work party

Another period has passed, and a lot has once again happened. Last week went by with usual stuff like working, climbing etc. At the weekend we had my work party in our flat. About 12 people from work came, and everybody brought some food. We had tapas and drank a lot of wine. It was a great night with a lot of entertainment. A quiz was made, and in teams they had to guess stuff about our colleagues. They also had to build IKEA furniture blindfolded. All good fun!

On Sunday we got up at 12 and went out for breakfast. Torkjel and I walked to Grünerløkka to eat breakfast. After that we did a two hour walk around Oslo in gorgeous weather. When we got home, Anniken came to visit, and helped us eating some of the food from the night before. Generally a great day.

The last few days has gone by with climbing on monday and yesterday. Tuesday we went to the cinema to see Juno. A really good film. Yesterday I spent the day with Irene and the twins. Had a good time there, chatting a lot, and playing with the girls. They are 10 months old at the end of the month.

Working on Saturday, but looking forward to Sunday now, sledging in Korketrekkeren!

Kids party and skiing

Another busy weekend has gone by. Managed to fit in quite a lot once again.

We were supposed to go climbing on Friday night, but when it got to it we were too tired from the week at work so we stayed in.
Saturday we took the bus to Vollen go celebrate Kassander's 2nd Birthday. It was really nice weather so we had a wonder round Vollen centre before going to the party. There were a lot of kids who seemed happy playing with each other. Kassander seemed to have a great day! His favourite phrases for the day was "Ja" (with a big smile) and "Min" (mine) when the other kids borrowed his toys. Hehe.

In the evening we went to Cafe con Bar and met up with Lene and Russ. It wasn't an overly late night, but a good one. One of the reasons we didn't stay too late was because we wanted to go skiing today. And we did! It was snowing a lot when we got up in the morning, but stopped by the time we started skiing at Tryvann. It was a bit foggy though, so sometimes it was a bit hit and miss with what you were skiing on. Couldn't always tell until you hit it - hehe. Russ and a girl from his language course came too.

Since it's fastelaven today (no idea what that is in English) I've made fastelavensboller. Basically buns with cream and jam in them. Nice :) We also went out for a sushi. Really not ready for another week at work tomorrow! How come the weekends go so fast? Anyone up for three-day weekends instead?

Off climbing in the evening tomorrow, so here comes another busy week!
