Two minds

You walked away and destroyed the basic trust of a child. You never hurt me physically but the psychological damage follows me for the rest of my life. The ratio says that it is not my fault but yours. Yet it's just impossible to ignore that feeling of being neglected. Why? Sometimes I feel like shouting at you - do you feel guilty at all?
Did you just choose to completely ignore what you've done?
Sometimes I wish you were dead, then maybe the thoughts would stop. Virtually you are not existing anymore anyway. It's impossible to go back so all that is left is to accept that the past cannot be changed and the urge for harmony will never be satisfied. All I wanted was a little bit of your time ....

We visited the 'elg' people:





And now the rock carvings which make clear why 'elg' (moose) people:

Impressions of Oslo VIII

Another series of pictures from Oslo - I played tour guide for an Australian friend last summer. This was almost a year ago, lol, I am so up-to-date ;)

Ornaments on a viking ship in the famous viking ship museum:



After a long time of restauration, they had the extraordinary sledges displayed again - first time I saw them but it was quite hard to take pictures because of the glass.



I tried to capture the eye made of amber:



Gjøa - the first ship sailing through the Northwest Passage:



And another impression of Åkershus ... they change the flowers every year:

Oslo Fjord Cruise

For some mysterious reason I ended up on the invite list of a cruise dinner on the Oslo Fjord. The weather wasn't really that nice but here just a few pictures ... and yes the ugly town hall is taken with an angle ... was hard to find a good spot for the camera ;)
