NATO have some military warships out in the fjords north of Stavanger.
This weekend they are based at our harbour, and some were open to the public today.
Here you see M864 and M923.

Crocus in October.
















A grey rainy day today.
Look what I found in the Botanical Garden.
Isn't it strange for October?
I suddenly felt it was spring,  -
not heading for winter.

A beautiful day!














What a beautiful day we have had today.

Here you see the beach at Sola this afternoon.

TASTA.














Stavanger is well known for roadworks!
At the moment I have to say I feel sorry for the people living at TASTA.
So much noise and air pollution!
This is how walls are put up to protect houses.

Food at KOKKO.





















The couple who owns KOKKO also have a coffee brewery above the cafe.
I agree with those who nominated and voted the place to be the best coffee place in Stavanger!
It was very good, and so was the food.
I'll be back.
If you click on their fb.page you can find out more about the place and some of the events.

Aesthetically pleasing...















Listen...
A new coffee place, that is so much MORE than "just a coffee place" has opened.
You should check out the place that is in Østervåg.
The name is KOKKO.

If you like quality go and enjoy the place!
It is aesthetically pleasing....

Good to see a place like this in our town!

Just waiting....




















They were just waiting.

Looks like a war zone?





















Nothing is happening here after the fire 2,5 years ago.
Sometimes it looks like a war zone!

Nice looking house at the back.


Tuesday 18 October 2016

Looking for color.


















I am grateful for color, especially now when it is grey, dark, windy and rainy days.

What.....















I had to look twice when I saw this school car out in the traffic...

Sunday 16 October 2016

A beautiful sunny day.

















We have had another beautiful sunny day!

The house and the reflection looked nice,
so I thought this is just what I want to share with YOU today.


Happy weekend!

Life up in the tree.




















Look who I met out on my walk a couple of days back :)

Wednesday 12 October 2016

A political logo.












An old beauty well taken care of.
The logo belongs to one of the political parties that are in government.

As a blogger, I see images from all over the world, and these days there are lots of political signs on cars and in gardens in America.

Here in Norway it is very rare to see political or religious messages in gardens, but some like this car owner obviously want attention for his or hers political view.

Tuesday 11 October 2016

Radisson Blu Atlantic Hotel.





















The hotel is closed at the moment.
A lot of renovation work is being done, and a new look is on it's way!
I 'm sure that it will boast lots of style all over.
It has been filled by lots of famous people and events over the years, not to mention, being a place for locals to celebrate or just to grab a cup of coffee.

Every autumn it looks so pretty with all the colours on the leaves.
Still sunny days here!

A mural.



















Streetart seen at the east side of the city.
How and Nosm are the names of the artists.

Janove Ottesen




















Here is JANOVE OTTESEN, who also is known for beeing the leader of the band Kaizers Orchestra.
(Lots of music to be found on youtube and google. Check it out.)

He played some new music in the same good style.

A great evening!

Hear Me Roar.


















The Stavanger Band "Hear Me Roar" also played at the concert last night.

I got a feel of country style and Neil Young. I have never seen or heard them before, but they are doing well and have had several concerts around the western part of Norway.

The concert was a gift from a bank (Sparebanken Vest), who had this event and concert on an evening where the bank gave money/awards to good causes.

I got impressed about the bank who actually supported groups and charity in different fields, as long as they were not political or religious. So many people who do charity work for free. Impressive the time and work they put in to it!

Concert at Folken tonight.

Hilde Selvikvåg was one of the local artists.

Including coffee and cake...

Fasten your seatbelt.












If you travel by bus in Norway, you have to fasten your seatbelt, otherwise you might end up with a fine and have to pay NOK. 1500 (Nearly 167 Euro).
Is it the same in other countries? 

Sunday 2 October 2016

S/Y HAVBJØRN.





















Sunday turned out to be just perfect!
And what a beauty I saw at the harbour this morning.
She came from Oslo and next stop will be Scotland.
The two guys who I had a quick chat with,
had planned a long adventure with her.

Safe journey!

Abandoned.





















An area that looks abandoned, after knocking down houses and a big fire that destroyed a building!
Someone has tried to make it look better with a little bit of artistic or humoristic work on the wall.
