Nobel Peace Center
There were some protestors outside the Nobel Peace Center when I wandered on past recently. I have no idea what they were protesting about.
Harry and Barney
I share an office with my two friends Harry and Barney Ponsonby. They’re quite awesome and keep me entertained when not working. I snapped some photos of them on a walk with their master Shay Ponsonby at lunch time.
New apartment
People keep asking me what my new apartment in Oslo looks like, so here’s some piccies to keep you happy 🙂
Cemetery in Oslo
I normally find cemeteries kinda creepy, but there’s something I find very peaceful about them once there’s a nice dump of snow on them. This is one I stumbled across when I got lost walking home from town one day.
Random shit in Oslo!
Some random shit I’ve seen in Oslo recently.
Bridge in Oslo
Snapped a photo of a nice bridge near my apartment in Oslo. I often walk over this bridge when taking a detour to the shops.
Sun in Oslo
It’s often hard to see the sun in Oslo, but here is proof it does exist 🙂
Birdies in the snow
Apparently snow is edible! These pigeons were pulling out all sorts of edible delights from within the snow pack. And here I was thinking it was nothing but water! And a bonus photo of a duck 🙂
Dawn near the stream
I went for a wander down the side of the stream near my apartment in Oslo. The sun creeping over the horizon made for a pleasant walk through the snow.
New camera!
My trusty old Canon S1IS died last year. I’ve been making do with a cruddy piece of junk bottom of the line Canon crapbox since then, so decided that since I’m in an exotic new land and popping shots off constantly that I should upgrade to something better. So today I bought a brand new […]
Crazy water sculpture
This is a crazy sculpture thingy sitting in the water beside the Oslo opera house. It turns on it’s axis in line with the tide and wind.
Frozen stream in Oslo
I went for a walk along the stream near my apartment. The river is starting to freeze over. I wasn’t ballsy enough to go stand on it, but it sure does make sure an idyllic view.
Oslo Opera house
I walked down to the Oslo Opera House (“Operahuset” in Norwegian). The walk to the top was slippery as heck. I should have realised it was a bad idea to walk up there when I had to walk past a sign warning not to walk up there and clamber underneath a chain blocking access. But […]
Bandy
I went to check out a game of Bandy here in Oslo recently. For those of you who haven’t heard of it before, Bandy is a sport which is similar to field hockey, but played on ice. The rink is huge, as are the goals. There is much less contact than in ice hockey and […]
Photos from around Oslo
I went for a walk around Oslo. Here are some snaps from my trip.
Sognsvann
I headed to Sognsvann just north of Oslo to go ice skating. It turned out there was way too much snow on the lake for skating, but I had a nice walk around the lake anyway.
