Tired after jogging

I'm a bit tired after doing a lap around the 8.5 km lake Stokkavannet.
I did it in 50 min and 28 seconds. But keep in mind that I walked the
first 25 minutes as a warm up :-)

Bo had a slight accident

Just kidding of course even if it looks like a scene from the Norwegian splatter movie "Død Snø"

Having a "healthy" lunch ;-)

All the place had to offer was hot dogs, burgers and nuggets...all with french fries of course :-)

Ame tried the downhill skiing and Bo tried the snowboard at http://www.tjorhomfjellet.no/ . Bo didn't quite master the part of stopping but apart from that he did pretty good. Ame on the other hand...hmm...I think we have to work on your ploughing :-)
