Photos from around Oslo
A small cemetery in Oslo. 
Norwegian Parliament building in Oslo. 
An ice rink I skated on near the Royal Palace in Oslo. The palace where the King of Norway lives. River in Oslo, An Oslo T-blane station. 
The road enroute to Metronet (where I'm working) -
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.

New Years with Cassienne
Whilst enroute to a new job in Norway, I stopped off in Christchurch to spend New Years with one of my favourite people in the whole world, Cassienne. After a few months of feeling like hell, this was a great way to pep me up before heading on to a new life in Norway. We celebrated new years eve at a crazy old church with an outdoor fire and lots of fun people.

Chilling out in Singapore
I’m currently blobbing out at Changi airport in Singapore en route to Norway. This is definitely the most pleasant short-term stopover I’ve ever experienced. The whole airport is just “nice”. Lots of shops, lots of good food, lots of pleasant little indoor garden areas, good transport around the terminals (and between them) and not overly busy.
My only problem is that I have a swollen hand, I assume because of some sort of insect bite last night. It was swelling up before leaving New Zealand and has got somewhat worse en route. Thankfully they don’t require prescriptions for medicines here it seems, so I was able to just rock on into one of the airport pharmacies and grab some hydrocortisone cream to treat it. Hopefully that will do the trick shortly, otherwise I’m going to be arriving in Oslo with a fat persons hand!

My fat hand! I'm guessing this was caused by an insect bite of some sort.
