Whilst staying in Naseby for a hockey tournament, Dave Patchett, myself and Chris Laing walked up in the snow to Hoffman’s dam. The dam was frozen, but not enough to skate on.

Harriet Geoghegan and I headed north to the city of Tromsø in northern Norway. Our goal was to see the northern lights, and we duly did 🙂 At first this seemed unlikely as Tromsø was shrouded in cloud, but our friendly northern lights tour guide drove us most of the way to Finland in an attempt to find clear skies. There was still cloud, and apparently what light we could see wasn’t as bright as it often is, but sure enough we saw some green lights bobbing about in the sky as can be seen in the photos below.
Mental note: Take a tripod next time!
Oslo got darned cold for a while. A good demonstration of how chilly it got is this waterfall which was almost totally frozen over.
Panoramic view of the river which flows beside the Albert Town camping ground. I was visiting Krissi and Jaimee Wood at their camp site.

There were some protestors outside the Nobel Peace Center when I wandered on past recently. I have no idea what they were protesting about.
