Sunday morning.




















These three sporty men I met when I was out walking the dog.
They had been cycling all the way from Stavanger. I met them at Midgardsormen. South of Stavanger.
They smiled when I said that was a long way, but I did not tell them that I have only been cycling to Sandnes! (Well, I have rented bicycles in Denmark, Italy and Japan as a tourist)
Anyway, they are members of a cycle club, based on friends who train together.
The spirit was good, they had had their sports drinks, and are now probably back in Stavanger.
If you know them, please tell them that you have seen them on the blog.

The LADIES from TJELTA.

















The LADIES from TJELTA,
is a group of women who meet up once a week, for a nice walk together. (Tjelta turgruppe.)

TJELTA is an area in Sola, about 20 minutes south of Stavanger city centre.

The group had driven a bit further south for this weeks walk.

Here they enjoyed their lunches at the bridge, MIDGARDSORM, also seen in the last two postings.

In the winter, when it is cold and perhaps with snow and rain, they have the possibility to use a nice sports/club house where they have lunch.

Sporty Ladies!

(Hope you will explore lots of nice places, and don't forget the Botanical Garden at Ullandhaug :)

The bridge MIDGARDSORMEN.
















I went for a walk this beautiful SUNNY morning, over the bridge Midgardsormen.
In Norse mythology the "Midgardsorm" is famous.

It is situated about 30 minutes by car south of Stavanger,
and then it is a short walk from the parking place.

There are picnic areas on both sides of the bridge.
The grand opening of the bridge took place earlier this month.

It is built, thanks to companies and individuals who have paid "shares" to have the bridge built.
Names are put up on one side of the bridge.
