Holidays 2009 III :D

As promised, here is chapter III from your adventure around Europe:


On our way up from Oslo to Trondheim, we stopped at Tynset, supposedly the town of the Trolls. We were expecting to find there big stores selling all sorts of things related to Trolls. However, to our great disappointment, these people quit manufacturing those funny creatures some years ago. *snif*
This one on the picture was all we could find... just a little bit too big to take home :p


This is Joel and his son David, on one of our walks around one of the lakes of Trondheim.


This is a telecommunications tower, which has a restaurant on its top... don't need to mention the fantastic few from up there, don't I ? ;)


Here is some evidence...


And we went up there to have dinner :D ... looks like someone wasn't feeling very comfortable...hmm


That's an example of a street in Trondheim and of its houses.


This picture was taken on the fortress of Trondheim...


... and this one down town next to the houses built over the river...


Nice idea ;)


After days and days of search, we finally found our Trolls. This one was placed in front of the shop...really cute XD


Photographer's eccentricity I


Picture from our travel around the Fjord shore...


...one more...


...and in this one we can see that in the Fjords car motors grow from the soil... :p


Here we are on a Ferry crossing the Fjord...


Two very good looking girls XD


This picture is a game: Find the Ferry... :p


Mr. Photographer being photographed on the Ferry.


And the very good looking girls from a while ago having a rest on the Ferry's inside...


As we can see, in Trondheim there is car tuning as well.
We decided our next trip will be done in a car like this one... :p


This is a picture of Trondheim's Cathedral... the biggest Cathedral of Norway.


Remember the houses built over the river?? Here they are again...


Photographer's eccentricity II


Photographer's eccentricity III


And, photographer's eccentricity IV... XD


Chapter four (Switzerland) will be published as soon as possible... keep looking up ;)

Holidays 2009 II :D

So, here we are...some more pics from our trip ;)


This is in Gothenburg, Sweden... a little stop after leaving Copenhagen towards Oslo. The city seemed not to have a lot to see, however...


We have seen this huge cruise ship in Oslo, during one of our walks. It was really enormous! We could count 12 floors!!!!


This is the Akershus Slott, a fortress standing right next to the harbour in Oslo...


Uuuups.... XD
This man got a present while waiting for the boat which took us to Bygdoy on the other side of Oslo...LOL


So, here we are getting on board of the boat :)


This picture was taken in the Norsk Folkemuseum, an open-air museum where more than 150 buildings from all over Norway have been assembled. The travellers guide even says it is Europe's original and largest open-air museum :D


While visiting the museum we had the opportunity of watching a demonstration of their traditional dancing!


And here with everybody ;p


Talented me doing some acrobatics...:)


And of course, someone had to do it as well...macho man is macho man... XD


This is how a house looked like in its inside.


This church is called Gol Stave Church and it is a copy from the original built in Hallingdal in 1200.


That's the Nobel Peace Centre building.


Two sweet Trolls in front of a Souvenir shop :D


This is the Opera House...actually a pretty nice building!!


And finally, for Oslo, the square in front of the Oslo Central Station.


Don't miss the next chapter, Trondheim and surroundings XD

Holidays 2009

Hi folks!

Once again we are in the middle of one of our trips around Europe. Here are some pics of the adventure so far...


We @ the exit of Etap Hotel in Tours - France, the first stop after leaving Portugal.


Something in Lübeck I don't remember right now the name :p...however, Lübeck is a very famous city in Germany due to its Marzipan...apart from being a UNESCO Heritage City (or how ever this is called :) )


Here is our Ferrari number 3 (after Ferrari number 1 (Panda) and Ferrari number 2 (Focus) ), and we are in its inside, waiting to enter the Ferry to Danemark.


This is the view from our Hostel in Copenhagen...


Something similar to a bench... eccentricities of the photographer...lol


Photographer being photographed with a pretty girl...XD
(Still in Copenhagen)


And again...


This is - I think - the parliament...but I have to check it up again :p...in Copenhagen, of course


Mr. Photographer on a trip on a boat through the channels of Copenhagen...or whatever those water "streets" were :p


Mr. Photographer was not the only one on the trip XD


The 3 adventurers in Copenhagen.


And the famous street with the colourful houses...in Copenhagen


Last, but not least, the symbol of Copenhagen - apparently...a tribute to the Little Mermaid story.


Well, and that's it, for now...keep looking up our blog if you wish to follow our way!
