A rainy day fishing

A rainy day is perfect for fishing! 
Marte went hunting for some quality worms, and off we went!

Everyone checking out the worm catch!

...eeeuuuuwwww!

He almost ate one!!!

Beautiful

Down by the river at a 'secret' spot

Ok, bate is on...

...great cast! Straight into the tree tops! Stuck!

Elliot casting away...

...and rolling back in. No fish.

Better luck for Agnes?

Nope! But a great day in the rain it was!

Andreas the Rallycross driver!

Andreas is a rallycross driver, and wow, does he drive fast!! We got to see on of his races and spent a day amongst thundering engines, burning tyres, explosions and fire!

Trust me - the sound of these cars are REALLY loud!

Agnes squeezing in a cuddle!

Pappa and Andreas checking out the action

Girls in the fast lane!

Checking out the engine before race start

The mini-mechanics taking notes!

Revving the engine - yup, ready!

Even I got a sit in the tiiiiiiny race care seat! (no, it's not my bum that's big!)

Ok, Andreas heading for the starting line...

...there he goes!!!

.....weeeeee, screaming tyres....

Gregg filming Andreas in action

...and the winner is: Andreas! Well done!

Oooops, someone didn't reach the finish line!

A racecare is excellent seating equipment!

Proud family!

...and yummy ice creams!


This is fun!

Andreas got a medal! Congratulations!

... a sleepy Agnes. Wow, what an adventurous day on the race course!

Visiting Hurdal

Whilst in Norway, we had some wonderful days visiting Hurdal and Bestefar Torfinn, Bestemor Grete, Marte, Andreas and their cute cats...and of course Leik, the dog.

Agnes just loved Marte's little pony!

Marte and the girls took Leik for a walk in the rain

At the local cafe

We found a beautiful fence!

Ready for coffee and waffles

The barn

We wrote in the guest book...

...and everyone signed their names

...a hello from far-away Australia

A cafe in the living room


Hurdal is by a lake
Agnes and Grete having a laugh

Summer flower everywhere

...and rainy days and fog

Looking down the river

And there is even a ski jump!

Walking in the rain


and lots of horses

Andreas's old race car

Girls afternoon...nailpolish!

Rainbow nails

Getting camera advice from pappa for my camera

Marte made waffles...niiiice!



And lots of fun with Bestefar Torfinn!
