Lighter days from now.

Today is the darkest and shortest winter day.
After today we will have longer periods of
daylight again and hopefully more sunshine too.

Detail.

Detail from outside one of the bakeries in town.

SPORTY MAN.

The snow is melting now.
This is an image taken last week.
Even with lots of snow, there are people who are out running.
Here is one SPORTY MAN.

At the back you see the Petroleum Museum and the city bridge.

Kongsgata.

The road KONGSGATA, next to the city park and the little lake Breiavatnet.

GUNDA

GUNDA is a friendly and cute dog, belonging to one of the sales people of the street magazine, ASFALT.
You might have seen her in town.
Yesterday she was probably the most photographed dog in town, she was out with the owner who was selling ASFALT's baking book outside the Culture House at Arnageren.

Lunch.

These lady friends were out for a nice pre-Christmas lunch this afternoon.
It is a tradition they have had for more than 10 years.
Nice to meet you all.
Merry Christmas.

Klepp

Another image taken from the air.
It is Klepp, and the area with the houses is Verdalen.
Driving by car it takes about 30 minutes from the centre of Stavanger.
I was going away for a couple of days.
And as always, happy to get a window seat! :-)
