77 days of rain and counting… 13 January, 2007

You would think that after Christmas, you will be able to put your over-used wallet to rest for at least some months. 

Until you see all the Sale signs everywhere. 

Most of the stuff I bought this afternoon are half price which is a very good deal.  I also got a nice Bergan’s of Norway jacket which is not discounted (costed Kr 3500, about US 522)  though but I nevertheless bought.  I’m fed up of always getting wet and counting casualties out of my umbrellas.  It’s also a pretty cool jacket for skiing. 

It also has a RECCO chip on the sleeve.  Recco is an avalanche reflector which needs no batteries or maintenance.  It uses radar technology to quickly locate avalanche victims.  Not that I’m a hardcore skiier or something – but who knows?  I’m taking skiing lessons in Geilo later this month.

You don’t have to be afraid of getting cought in an avalanche then.
nah, just kidding :)

I’m glad I don’t live in Bergen nowadays, all the rain and stuff, it’s too much for me! But i guess if you get used to it, it isn’t such a big issue for people in the western part of Norway.

I hope you have fun at Geilo! And remember; safety first ;)
