A fox in our backyard

Yesterday morning Anders woke me up at 05.00. So I got up and prepared some milk for him. When finished I looked and walking back to the bedroom I took a quick look out of the window and at first I thought it was very early for our neighbour to be out walking his dog. But then I realised that it was not Pascal, the schafer, but a fox. He took his time, enough for me to fetch the camera and take some pictures.

Cross country skiing

Yesterday I took my cross country skis out for the first time this season. The conditions are very good (to much snow in the city), and they have been for quite a while now, so it was about time that I did according to Espen (since the season is almost over now as he said). I just had to run for about five minutes carrying my skis, then it was just to conquer Østmarka. I was out for about 2 hours, and the same today. Good fun, but I need to update my knowledge on wax, that’s for sure.

Buns with raisins versus chocolate

The recent years it have become even more popular to sell not only plain buns and buns with raisins, but also buns with chocolate at for instance the gas stations. I must admit that I am a fan of both buns and chocolate, but together it is almost to much. And I have also been disappointed several times when looking forward to eat my raisin bun, just to realise at the first bite that it is a chocolate bun.

Shell at Espa are a lot of buns each year, so much that they even provide their own ringtone

Roger Ramjet, he’s our man

All of a sudden I remembered the theme song for Roger Ramjet, went straight to Youtube and Wikipedia and found it

Roger Ramjet, he’s our man
Hero of our nation
For his adventures just be sure
And stay tuned to this station

Super Spesial Rally Norway

Espen and I went to Bjerke Travbane today to see Petter and Henning Solberg, Sebastien Loeb, Mikko Hirvonen, Jari-Matti Latvala and all the other rally drivers do their first SS of Rally Norway 2009, the super spesial.

It was fun, we got to see Pål Anders Ullevålseter on his bike, the KTM car and a combined FMX and snowmobile show. Then finally what we came to see, the rally.
