RE: Waiting for the bus ... and some general thoughs on silly planning

RE: Waiting for the bus ... and some general thoughs on silly planning
It's a bit of the same in Norway, today houses have been built on places where nobody would dare building houses a century ago. Perhaps the availability of insurance is part of the reason, people can afford

RE: The battle brewing
I do hope Maduro will go peacefully and that new and fair elections will be held - but I believe there will be a quite bitter-sweet taste to the new regime if it gets initiated due to US intervention.

How quaint ... I apparently never replied to this one? They don't have their special lanes anymore where the motorcycles and Evs could drive also? Along the highways they tend to build an extra lane for

RE: Sandefjord - my FIRST time in Scandinavia!
There is no "Oslo-Torp airport", only the low-cost carriers going there use such phrasing. The correct name is "Torp Airport Sandefjord".

RE: Polar night - photos from the brightest hours of the darkest days in Tromsø, Arctic Norway
My wife got pretty much fed up of it in the end, that's why we moved (back) to Oslo. (I was living in Oslo for a while when I met her ... but I did miss Tromsø too much, hence we moved north ...)
