Green, grey, yellow and white in Ålesund. Part 2

Time for Part 2!

On a very sunny day i had walked to the Fjellstua again, but that time by the car road. There were 2 small water tanks and one day,because of the cold, kids were skiing on one of them. And again; breathtaking views! I love that the cities in Norway are so close to the forest and nature. You can see a connection between both of them-so charming. I walked about 6 km and sat down to enjoy my lunsj- a polarbrød with brunost (their brown goat's cheese, tasting like a salt caramel). It reminded me of how much i love to picnic-mostly with friends of course. In Norway there are hundreds of places where you can rest like that! It would be my addiction if i had lived there-walking, picnicing, hyggeling almost every week. For the sixth time i visited Aksla and i hid there cause it had started to rain quite strong. But as they say, there is no bad weather only bad clothing- i had worn my hood and walked 400 stairs down.

 On a friday I was feeling too sick to do anything, so i only walked to my place to sit on the rocks and try Cokin filters.

I had also spent the evening and the next day with my friends but we spent more time inside than outside, so what about Sunday- I had visited the Atlanterhavsparken. What i loved about this place was the possibility of holding a living crab or starfish in your hands! Feeding the penguins or seals would be a lot better to watch if it wasn't so freezing and windy. (The tickets costed 180 nok per person, for kids were cheaper ones). Eating out is not cheap in Norway, but i can recommend you a nice place called 'Centrum Kebab' with my favourite kebab-pizza at the corner of Apotekergata and Nedre Strandgate, close to the bridge on Alesundet.

I got lost in counting days actually, but the last one was so magical. The saddest part was my leaving at 9pm, but before that- it was a national polish Fat Thursday (Tłusty Czwartek) so at the morning i had been going to the shop and what i've seen? Real snow! Everything was white and i felt like the happiest person on earth. Norwegian people were ready for Polish, with a huge shelf of doughnuts (which weren't as good as the ones in my country) even for a smaller price. I wanted to buy skillingsboller (cinammon buns) but there were none so i bought skolebrød (a vanillabun). A mixed Fat ttursday, because they have a Fat Sunday called Fastelavnssøndag. That's a bit more about their and mine important culture! (I just want to mention how delicious is their chocolate- way softer than Milka or polish Wedel- it is called Freia Melkesjokolade. Oh and their Kvikk Lunsj- so similiar to Kit Kat- and it is said that they love to take it with them for hiking and it is sold mostly on a Easter season.) I think that's all about food! 

Later this day i visited shopping centre in Moa which is going to be the biggest one in Norway, but it will take a quite long time in my opinion. I wanted to take some winter photos of mountains so we drove to the Spjelkavik area. It was my last walk before leaving and i wanted to take advantage of it all: the snow, the mountains, the forest, the nature, the wild, the moment. I was happy and sad at the same time.

And yes, i cried while entering the plane, even knowing i can come back anytime. There was also a bit of other reason why i cried but this one was more personal.

If you don't have a place where you feel such a big amount of love, i'm sure you'll find it one day, and maybe it will be or it is Norway?

You might have wondered why this post is called 'Green, grey, yellow and white''. As i wrote in the previous part, the weather was mixed just like that.

This one also took me a while to publish, but well, school is the most important thing for me right now and also last days i didn't feel like myself. But here it is, and soon i'm going to join the Pogoria cruise on Mediterranean and i'm planning to visit my friend in Munich. (And before thatl i'll share a small note about new stuff in Gdańsk)
