Cute little cat basking in the sun.

Photos of Holmsbu, Norway. Flying the Norwegian flag.

It's amazing how small you can make a car. Cars this tiny are quite common here in Norway.

Someone's little fishing boat trapped in the ice for all of winter.

Cute little crabshack next to the water in Holmsbu. I bet this place is really popular in the summer time.

I guess they don't have to worry about moving this boat till summer.

The ice is breaking up making way for warmer waters.

Small coastal town of Holmsbu, Norway. Very quaint. We walked around taking photos and had lunch. It was really nice.

Heidi took this shot out the window after we left Holmsbu.

The view was so nice at the cafe. Heidi liked it.

This view is from a cafe that had a better view. You can see all the shipping containers and the ocean liner to the left.

Another closer photo of the view.

Me with the new Golf.

Quarter view of the new Golf. Very fun to drive.

I always wanted a car with a wide european license plate! This Golf is so great to drive and surprisingly roomy inside.

More of Oslofjorden.

All of this water in the front of us was frozen solid about a month ago. You would see guys out on it ice fishing. You can see how pretty the fjord really is even in the snow.

Today was really sunny and nice in Oslo so we had to get out in the new car and go for a drive. The air is still pretty brisk but there is hope in sight for sunny warm days here. The building on the right is the back side of the fortress I believe.

We should of went inside. Makes me wonder now how much candy is exactly inside.

Godis Fabriken. I think this means candy shop or that they fabricate candy,, haha.

Happy Godis. Swedish for happy candy.

There was a big candy store across the street in Svinesund. We didn't go in but it had cool images like this one on their sign.

Taken in Sweden when we were buying up some stuff for the baby. The town is called Svinesund. I had to take a break from the shopping to get some fresh air so I snapped these shots from outside.

Again, the same. I just really liked how these came out.

Another with the f-stop set to negative 2 I believe.

More from the window to Sweden.

Of course I was having fun taking these photos, theres a lot of them.

The sun looks like a full moon here.

More shots on the way to Sweden. I was taking these photos with a negative F-stop so the camera let in less light. The photos came out somewhat mystical.

This photo was taken on the way to Sweden from the car. I like how it came out.

Taken from the street we live on.

Had to capture the icicles outside our window. These were the short ones!

This lion looks cooold!

More shots of downtown.

Now downtown taking random shots.

More buildings against the snow.

The other side of the bridge. I like the bold colors of these buildings against the white snow and trees.
