Oh shut up. I'm sitting in a cold and snowy country mind you. Or, today it's sunny, but dead cold anyways.

[Zoid]

I´ll take a snowy barbecue anyday, as long as the sun is shining. You don´t feel like "gå på tur" Nikolai?

[Nikolai]

It's cold outside and I'm having a cold inside. And besides I'm not much of a "turmenneske". Although when I first get out it can be pretty fine... But right now I just want to have the spring coming.

Once I lived in Lillehammer right in the cold midth of Norwegian civilization, and then I was used to cold weather. Now I've lived in Bergen for 11 years, and isn't that used to it anymore... So when I came to Trondheim this year(one year off from Bergen to go on "folkehøyskole"), I got some problems adjusting one could say...

[Zoid]

Is it such a difference between Lillehammer/Trondheim and Bergen? Everytime I visit Oslo in the winter it´s cold as hell...

[Nikolai]

Let's see... In Lillehammer you'll have loads of snow and temperatures down to -20 at the worst. In Bergen you'll have little snow, most of the time none, and temperatures more or less never below -5. Quite often you'll see the temperatures be more like +3. In Trondheim I haven't been much yet, only this winter, but so far there have been a situatiuon more like right in the middle of these two. In Oslo... Well, they tend to complain much over there, but really it's not as bad as most other places in the country.

But hey! There's almost no pics on this page! Here's a pic taken by yours truly during the winter 2004, the guy standing in the middle is my best friend.

Heh, when I did my military service we had a guy from Gällivare (northern Lappland) in our platoon, and he said that he hadn´t been so cold in his life. Because of the wet cold here, compared to the dry cold he was used to from home. Granted it was a really cold winter and it´s not fun sleeping in tents in -18C, but in northern Lappland it often gets -30 - -35C...

Beautiful pic btw

Thanks. Hehe, well the climate in Bergen is much more wet than in Lillehammer, and -5 in Bergen is colder than -5 in Lillehammer, but no more than -10 I'd estimate. And as said, it's seldom it's that cold. Most of the time it's above or around zero.
