Nansenparken, Norway

This summer I went to visit Nansenparken in Oslo. Nansenparken is located on Fornebu where Oslo´s airport used to be. Personally I think this is an interesting park. I work as a civil engineer with water and wastewater planning at Rambøll. This park is an excellent example of how stormwater management can be implemented in the landscape of a park area. It combines tresholds and waterways in the terrain. This is an esthetically and environmentally great park, but it has its weaknesses due to fouling. I think the maintenance could be better, but I also see the challenges associated with this. A park like this require a lot of great planning. This post is mostly to show you the elements I like in this park.

Søndagstur til Grovannet

Bilde
I dag var jeg og ei venninne på tur til Grovannet og rundt i området. Vi gikk med utgangspunkt i Grostøl. Keila er nybadet i en liten bekk. Hun var så nysgjerrig på isen på vannet at hun plutselig var langt nedi bekken og snuste før hun duppa nedi.  Nyter høstfargene og været utover et lite tjern Fin vei å gå på fra Grostøl og innover mot Grovannet.  Kakao og lefser med sukker og kanel smakte godt på turen.  Hva? Jeg har vel ikke vært en tur nedi gjørma og griset til labbene???  Speiling fra en annen vinkel. Fantasien står fritt.  Sjeldent jeg legger ut bilder av meg selv. Her begynner Keila å bli sliten etter ca 4,5-5 km Så da fikk hun haik et stykke oppi sekken, og trivdes godt der et par km.  Nå er jeg snart oppladet og klar for litt mer løping.  Deler av stien var barnevandrerstien som går fra Kvinesdal til Grimstad.

Amazing roadtrip on the Brokke - Suleskard road

Bilde
On the 31st of May we had an amazing drive from Flekkefjord to Kristiansand via the road from Suleskard to Brokke. This is a winter closed road, and it opens the last weekend of May. We drove here just a few days after the opening, and the amount of snow in the mountains were stunning! I can recommend this route through this amazing landscape in south of Norway. Driving from spring to winter in a couple of hours  Photo taken from the ascent of the road looking towards south-west My husband standing next to huge amounts of snow I can barely reach half of this edge We tried to drive up to the Roskrepp dam, but the road was so narrow here that we had to drive back in reverse.  The highest of the snow edge was probably this one which is about 9-10 meters tall.  Descent towards Brokke Just a couple of days later the road had to close again for a couple of days due to more snow, and they couldn´t keep it open.  B
