Heading back home again.




















When the winter, the snow and the cold make us long for a break in the sun....


Those of us who do not have the opportunity to spend months abroad, look for cheap flights to a warmer place.
This year my friend and I spent a week on the island Gran Canaria.
Seven days without a drop of rain, just relaxing and exploring parts of the island.
It was worth every penny, and it is good for the body as well as the soul.

The number of Norwegians travelling abroad has increased substantially over the years, but this is now probably on the decline again due to the current economic situation.

Do you see STAVANGER up there?

Hope you had a great time in the warm weather. My neighbor is over there right now enjoying the warm weather too :)

I do see it, yes.

Here a lot of Canadians seem to go to the Caribbean for a bit of a break away from the winter.

Glad you were able to go. Safe Travels!

You could have felt quite at home here where the canal is frozen over and people were ice skating and playing ice hockey.

Terrific. I'm glad you had a warm break. It won't be too long before spring arrives.

Sounds like just what you needed Gunn, I must admit I would love to get away to somewhere cooler, I wish Perth wasn't so far away from EVERYWHERE!! :) :)
