Batman - Oh Yes!

Poster found at http://www.filmweb.no/

We saw Batman - The Dark Knight yesterday. And it was great, just great! I've always loved super heroes but now it's actually also a VERY good movie. Go see it! And if you haven't seen Batman Begins yet, see that one first. This is actually one of the very few sequels that's better than the first movie in the series. The only other example I can think of is Terminator 2. I'm so seeing this one again!

After Work Picnic

I took Prince Charming for a picnic by the waterside yesterday. We played cards (I won 4 times!), had sandwiches, cold beer, cookies and espresso. It was a lovely evening.

More photos from Nepal

As promised a long time ago, here's more photos from our Nepal Trek.

My Favourite Place On Earth

Romsdalen is the best place I know. You can hike, climb, ski, kayak, boulder or do anything else you can think of when it comes to outdoorsy stuff. But I'm not really ready to leave the city yet and relocate. Maybe in 3-4 years? I'd love a summer house though. To afford one I'd have to win the lottery. And I'm trying real hard to do just that. Once a week, every week. I can't believe I didn't win this Saturday either!

Vacation Weather!

Today is my last day at work before my vacation. I have next week off - feels great! We have been wondering where to go because we want to go to the mountains but the weather forecast has been depressing. The weather is great now, though! I just received an SMS from Prince Charming telling me to check the forecast for Romsdalen (where the Summer House of My Dreams is located too!). The weather seems very unstable these days as the forecast changes all the time. But it promises great weather now - so off we go tomorrow morning. We spent last night packing our camping and climbing gear. But first there's Oslo Live tonight. We'll see Clutch amongst others at this festival tonight. What a great way to start the vacation!

Summer house of my dreams

Prince Charming and I looked through real estate ads for houses in our favourite mountainous area of Norway. We can't afford a summer house so it's just dreaming. Something like this would be perfect! An old house with a view, situated somewhere quiet in Romsdalen. This one has only got cold water installed, though. It would be so nice to have a summer house like this for the first years and then when we feel grown up and ready to leave the city we could move there. We'd have to have the plumbing re-done, though. I'd just paint the walls white and keep a lot of the old furniture. A summer house should have old furniture, I think. Something very modern would feel wrong in a house like this. Or maybe a mix when we move there full time. But we can't afford it and it would be too much work and hazzle to maintain a house so far away from Oslo. I'm still dreaming, though...

Happy Birthday, JP!

Photo by his wife, I think.

JP's birthday was yesterday - we'll keep the age to ourselves, but it was a "round day". We had a great time, drinking champagne and munching our way through Colombian delicassies and birthday cakes. The photo is from our trip together in October to Indian Creek, Utah.

I sadly discovered that my Bottega Venetta Intreccatio copy peep toe pumps were a size too big. I couldn't walk without my heel popping up from the shoe. So I gave them away to someone with slightly bigger feet than me. I loved those shoes! Below you can see what Bottega Veneta's signature vowen leather looks like - Intreccatio.
