  • Øyungen

    I went on a cycling trip to Øyungen, a small lake near Oslo. Round trip was about 37 km, which considering my total lack of fitness and excessive flab, was no mean feat! Here’s some photos en-route to the lake, photos of the lake itself coming up soon 🙂

    I tried to take a short cut, unfortunately my shortcut became almost vertical so I had to turn back!

  • Walking in Oslo

    I went for a walk from my apartment today. I went on a 15 km tour to the edge of the city and back. I was hoping to find somewhere to skate on a lake called Maridalsvannet, but the whole place is fenced off due to it being the primary water supply for the city.

  • Conroys dam

    During a skating expedition in July 2011, we stopped in at Conroy’s dam near Alexandra. There was no ice to be seen, but the lake was a beautiful crystal clear mirror.

  • 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.
