We saw the dark knight tonight

Featuring Christian Bale, Aaron Eckhart, Michael Caine, Gary Oldman and of course Heath Ledger in his last movie before he died. It was a good movie and a worthy followup to Batman Begins.



Some more pictures from Ragnhild and Jon Vidar's visit

As seen from the previous blog entries, we had Ragnhild and Jon Vidar over yesterday. Here are some more pictures but these are taken with our proper camera (the Canon EOS 450D). I started out by making some Kir Royal for our guest with the use of a Moët & Chandon Brut Impérial and Crème de Cassis. It was quite warm yesterday and JV got a bit hot from the short walk from the bus stop so it was good to start with a cold drink.


Instead of making dinner for the guests we had just prepared a couple of pizza bases and then we put pizza sauce and ingredients on the table and Ragnhild and Jon Vidar could make their own pizza.




Anyway, we made our pizza with chicken pieces, pepperoni, gorgonzola piccante, jarlsberg cheese, Parmigiano-Reggiano parmesan cheese, basil, chili, buffalo mozzarella, potato, tomato, black olives etc.





Here I am posing by our masks in the living room...I know, not much of a pose. I'm more used to being behind the camera :-)



Jon Vidar had to blog this even of course and you can see the result on http://ragnhildogjonvidar.blogspot.com/


In the end we sat on our balcony and looked at the thunder and lightning around us and enjoyed some coffee and amarula...and of course a bit of limoncello :-) Thanks for coming over guys...it was a great evening.

Largest fish kebabs I have ever seen




I have become a Flying Blue Petroleum member...again


It took forever to get my card. But now KLM is on a roll as this is the third card I get :).

Temptation from a vending machine on a Friday afternoon



There is a solar eclipse today

Not easy to see with the naked eye (or the with the cell phone camera) but if you look through dark glasses you can clearly see the moon in front of the sun. But without glasses I wouldn't have noticed it at all. It is only a 45% eclipse here in Stavanger.

Flor og Fjære

A visit to Flor og Fjære (see http://www.florogfjare.no/ ) is always nice...especially when the weather is perfect. We got a tour of the garden, got some food and I took some pictures with my new Canon EOS 450D camera. I'll post a review of the homepage :-)



Ready for å boat trip

Ready to get on board the Flor og Fjære boat.
