Oslo KF (my church) went on a trip last weekend. Twenty some people set course for Uvdal, where we have a growing tradition of going every fall. Åge and Ingrid's (leaders of our church) parents (in law) have a cabin there. Of course it wasn't big enough for us all, so we had to rent another large cabin. Really it was a big house... :) We had a great time there talking, laughing, playing games, hiking, praying, worshipping, sharing, eating, eating more and so on. It was great. Here are a few fun pics from our hike on saturday. It was rather short, but VERY steep.

Trying to beat Isak on the way up to the top.
Steffen was a great cook making us "lapper".
Later the gas container set on fire!

Hiking in Jotunheimen.
I went hiking with mom, dad and my brother this weekend. We stayed at Maurvangen, which is very close to Gjende. On saturday we had a four and a half hour trip, which was very nice. Not too far, but that was ok. We had planned to hike on sunday as well, but it was pouring rain... Too bad! Here are some pics from the trip.

Today my good friend through several years Elisabeth and I went canoeing on Hurdalsjøen (a big lake not so far from home). We had planned this a while ago and luckily the weather couldn't have been much better. We had a great time paddling, eating (quite a bit), chatting, praying and laughing (We had an incident when I had to "go to the bathroom". There aren't really a lot of bathrooms out there and we stopped by this floating dock with a large water pump on it supplying water for large amounts of timber, and things happened and we had a laugh...)

We had some

really great

views.

Elisabeth and I have both a fascination for toes. I don't know why, but I suspect that it might have to do with the look of our own toes. Hers are quite funny looking, but mine are an attraction. People ask to see my toes if the want a laugh. Take a close look at the picture above if this makes you curious.
