600kg

Jarle is very pleased with his bricks, all 600kg of them!  They do look nice don't you think?
They are also placed around our little roundabout on the lawn.

Heavy rain, thunder and lightning then sun today.  Summer in Norway.....

Pinse (Pentecost in English I think....)

We had a long weekend at the cabin.  Ben's friend Aled came with us and we celebrated Zizou's 2nd birthday.

Here he is with his new toys, the little beastie is an armadillo!  Poor love has a cone on because he had a weird lump beside his eye removed.  The vet had it analysed and it was a just a harmless tumour.

Florence

Jarle and I travelled to Florence last Friday (a very early start in the morning!) and stayed three nights.  The weather was beautiful and the city of Florence is also beautiful.  The place is like an open air museum.  Here are some of our photographs.

The famous cathedral Il Duomo, bell tower and bapistry.

Typical market stall

Zizou got a haircut at last.
