It’s soon time for me to go on a summer vacation. This year I’m off to Tuscany Italy. A good friend of mine is getting married down there and we’re starting the vacation by attending.

Witsun at the cabin
I spent this Whitsun at our summer-house. The weather was not the best when I drove in after work on friday, but the rain wasn’t too bad. I woke up quite early on saturday and after a nice long breakfast I drove to Jørpeland, the nearest small town. I picked up some groceries we forgot,… Continue reading Witsun at the cabin
Norwegian Island Idse
Our summer-house, that I wrote about in the previous post and a few others. Is as many of you have gathered a place I come to relax. It is situated on an island close to the quite famous Lysefjorden where you can find the pulpit rock. I find the scenery quite beautiful and dramatic. The… Continue reading Norwegian Island Idse
Hyttetur (cabin trip)
A while ago I was going to our summer-house to rest and enjoy the very good weather. But sadly an illness stopped me. Earlier this week I got to go in for a little while and even if the weather was not very good it was a peaceful relaxing break. The cabin trip contained eating… Continue reading Hyttetur (cabin trip)
London Baby!
I’m back from my trip to London, tired but very pleased with the trip. We left on Thursday evening and arrived in London and to the hotel at around 10.30-11.00 at night. This is late enough for me, but if you take in to consideration that this is local time and that England is one… Continue reading London Baby!

Wikipedia writes about the castle that: “Castle Hacket is a 13th-century tower house located at the base of Knockma hill six miles southeast of Tuam, County… Continue reading Easter in Ireland Part 4: Castle Hacket and Lough Corrib
Easter in Ireland Part 3: Galway
I decided to have a day all to myself in Galway, to do a bit of shopping, looking around and enjoying life in general. Even if the weather was overcast it was a warm day and very good shopping weather. I clearly was not the only one who had come up with this idea, because the streets… Continue reading Easter in Ireland Part 3: Galway
Easter in Ireland part 2: Tuam and Oranmore
Our base for my stay in Ireland was a nice house in Tuam where the back yard neighbours where sheep and their little lambs. We had a lot of good weather and I got to spend some time in the sunshine or in the sun room to read and relax only disturbed by the little… Continue reading Easter in Ireland part 2: Tuam and Oranmore
Easter in Ireland Part 1
As those of you who read my blog will know I spent my Easter holiday in Ireland this year. On our way down we got quite a bit delayed due to really bad weather in Central Europe. But we finally made it to Dublin, in the middle of the night and immediately collapsed on our… Continue reading Easter in Ireland Part 1
