Except from the cold wind today was gorgeous. Really great. Around +18C as max temperature but it felt way colder with the wind.
Last night I got 2 couchsurfers from Hong Kong to stay at my place. They took off for touristing purpose around 10am and I had planned to meet Jeff and Myriam, Ricard and Celine from Couchsurfing at 2pm to hike around Sognsvann and have a BBQ party in the forest. That turned out great !
We had a lot of fun after we met up at JernbaneTorget (Oslo Central station).
Janice and Karen (Hong Kong girls) tipped us that Oslo County Tourist office gave away Oslo Passes for free. We tried remembering it but it slipped our minds and we did not remember until we were suddenly in the forest.
Jeff took off and had a run while us others hiked in a nice tempo. We even got to parts where it was snow on the ground. Chee. I Thought we were done with the snow by now. hehe.
I started off in shorts but soon changed over to warmer clothes. We camped by a lake and made fire with a one-time-barbecue (typical from Norway). I was glad Jeff had a girlfriend that normally freezes easily and has learned to come prepared. I got to borrow one of the 3 jackets they had brought.
We had a nice feast with sausages and salads and other typical summerfood. We even had beer and wine deep in the forest.
As it closed up on 7pm it got too cold to stay out there anymore and we headed home.
A really nice day.
I got home and watched some TV and did some e-mail corresponding before Karen and Janice got home. Then we watched pictures before going to bed. I am so happy about my new couch and even more about the redecorating of the living room I did a month ago. That way the surfers almost has their own room. Wee
