Where to find Haukeliseter?

On our way to the Theater last night I suddenly saw this sign.

HAUKELISETER is 250 km. away, and it takes more than 4 hours to drive there by car.
Thinking about it, we do have other signs saying Denmark and England, so why not HAUKELISETER?

It is a beautiful place, and I would love to go there again!

Looking down.

Flying over the Sola /Tananger area.

What.....

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

Stavanger is number 2 ......

Stavanger is number 2 after Oslo (including it's surrounding region), when it comes to the number of roundabouts.

This is a view downhill from Gausel, not far from Gandsfjord.

Russ,- this time on a roundabout.

More russ (Pupils who celebrate 13 years of school).
This time, the red ones. They were out on a roundabout today trying to get attention with a poster saying. …. if you want the exams "later" honk your horn. And of course they got the attention that they were after, and of course it was noisy with all the cars……

You can see more RUSS if you click on the label at the end of this posting.

On my way home tonight I noticed lots of activity on and around the busy roundabouts outside Rogaland Theatre. The politicians have "found" some money to spend on colorful flowers to decorate the area. Nice to have something pretty to look at when we are sitting in a car, stuck in queue.

For further info. in Norwegian, see the local newspapers article.

This photo was taken at 22.10.

Even though it was cloudy and raining, you can see how light it is here in the evenings at this time of the year.

Stavanger is on top when it comes to the number of roundabouts in Norway.

This photo was taken last night around 22.15. and shows the brand new and very expensive construction that now leads pedestrians and cyclists around this busy place that has been there for years. Now it has become "slightly" wider than it was before.

Anyway, 40.000 cars are passing each day. I think it looks nice and the nice artwork adds something to the whole impression of the construction. I just hope those who normally "spray paint" our city will keep away so that people get a chance to see it.

The price? 119.million N.kr.......Yes, it is a lot of money no matter what currency! Those who want to express their feelings about it have done so in the newspaper and on TV.
