Yes, they have Kaviar in a tube so you can easily squeeze some out on some bread or crackers.
Just make sure not to mistake it for toothpaste. Reminds me of that movie where they substituted the toothpaste for meat – you know the one.
I did start to dig the spot out… then I needed a break.
You can se the drift was actually above the door. Nice. Ended up taking me an hour or so to dig the spot out.
Don’t you pay for snow removal?
Surprise! While it snowed where I was, it also snowed where I was going.
It appears that the void left while the car was away has left a convenient spot for the snow drift to pile up.
Thankfully, there were some “clean” guest parking spots and that did just fine for the evening.
I always found the various cultural depictions of Santa interesting.
Misinformed as I am, the modern U.S. Santa was not created by Coca-Cola (although he fits their color brand nicely) but by Thomas Nast.
The Santa of Scandinavia is a modest man with skinny legs and what appears to be a beer belly who runs around in his underwear and a red hat - he, Tomte, is actually an elf and not always pleasant.
Just another photo of the surrounding area.
Pretty nice to look at but when you see the sun in the winter, ussually means it is pretty cold. Think it was -12° C (10° F) when the sun was out but it was 1° C (33° F) when the snow was falling.
I spent my Christmas in a smaller town outside of Drammen, Norway which is about an hours drive west of Oslo. I have not seen as much snow falling since I drove from San Jose to Minneapolis during a blizzard (not so smart).
The totals in the area were about 50~60 cm (19~24 inches). Almost got stuck going up a steep incline.
The roads through the mountains reminded me of touge and I if I could have it, it would have been a lot of fun to rally.
Not really the pretzel king, it is some Norwegian pastry that just happens to look like a pretzel. It is larger in size from what I have been told.
I thought the sign and logo concept was pretty cool… simple, but cool.
Saw these hands in a little queue area for the phone in GlasMagasin. They are smaller than what they appear like in the photo.
Maybe Benson just needs a finger.
Since the holidays are more a consumer affair it seems these days, I wish you all a Merry Present Day.
I found special Christmas Beer at the store – some Santa Clausthaler. Don’t ask me how it tastes. They also have Christmas Soda – not so bad.
A lot of snow is falling today. It is that high-moisture content snow so it is heavy and is sticking together pretty nicely.
On the train into the city, I laughed a bit when I saw the doors open and the snow was as high as it was.
