A taste of NorwayFew pictures of my own “disengagement” Small sample of the North Yafa kfir Norway,Summer2005 (Is that Summer???)
The weather in Norway was grey and wet. Irritating. We went around holding the pamphlets – in the pictures we saw well built, blond, smiling faces wearing bikinis on a sunny glacier. We were armed with coats - frozen and wet !!
We were C…o..o..o..o..o..o..l..d….. and wet Most of the time (This is not a black and white picture – This is Norway in June)
Tomorrow we shall have a lot of SUNSHINE!!!!!!!!!!!!! So promised us our hosts, happily. As well as camping areas owners and other good-hearted Norwegians who felt sorry for us We were already thinking of getting out of there to warmer places… just like the migrating birds...
So after, after we finished arguing who had the idea of coming to Norway – where it is knownto be wet, cold, with hardly any day of sunshine, we took to the roads; actually continued our trip in the rain. Brixdale Area A known glacier,famous enchanting site We got there to see many busses dislodging Korean and Japanese tourists armed with coats and umbrellas, treading in the mud towards the glacier, and we said to ourselves – No May be, after all Tomorrow there will be sunshine. We turned around and drove to another side of the same ice cape, on one of the wettest greyest days of all that Summer. 15 km walk, back and forth, along the river and the glacier. On the way we met Herman, a real nice Dutchman. Together we did it. We returned frozen and tired… here are few pictures taken that day. I was surprised – how much beauty there is in the Norwegian nature even on a sun-less day.
I thank you for being with me, it is no fun if you can’t rush home tell the gang… Yafa Kfirhttp://www.yafakfir.com
