Hjemreise
scroll down for English version
På flyplassen i Molde hadde mamma og ekstramor Else trossa vær og dårleg føre for å hente ein heimkomen nordboar. Så bars det heim til Kanestraum. Mens eg let meg overvelde over ein ljos januarmorgon dagen derpå, pakka mor snippeska for å dra til Mallorca. For meg var det fascinerande nok å sjå sola på Nordmøre!
Going home was exciting this time. A windy Longyearbyen did not give any promises for a flight on time. But actually the plane was delalyed due weather at Gardermoen! Luckily we still made it in time to reach the connecting flight to Molde. SAS gave us excellent service, waiting for five people that wanted to go home. Mum and Extra-Mother Else came to pick me up, and after a snowy drive, we were finally @ home.
The next day I was thrilled to see January daylight. Amazing to see the sun again! The return of the light at Spitsbergen often makes people sleepy. Maybe it was the same reaction that made me tired as I arrived home? Whatever reason it was very enoyable to be able to see the sun again!
Et hundeliv

Ja, det er et hundeliv...! Min siste dag i polarnatten gikk til tidstyven Tundrak og de andre bikkjene. Halve hundegården gikk på ski eller kjørte slede til Papphytta. Der er det ikke plass til mange! Men ute er det god plass. Med kake fra kjøkkenet og fakler i snøen, koste vi oss storligent i 10 minutter. Dra frøs vi og gikk hjem ;-) Takk for laget!

Three o'clock Dog Coffee at Papphytta
My last polar night day was - as usual - spent with my dog... Together, half the dog yard went to Papphytta for sunday three o'clock coffee. Some came by skis, Elin came by sledge - and the rest (of the poeple!) came by scooter. After ten minutes of cake and coffee, the skiers were already cold and went home. But a nice gathering it was. Thank you!
Dagfrid "Supergran" cuddeling with Tundrak and Ask ;-)

Nyttårsbad
Nyttårsbad!

The last day of 2010 was very cold due low temperatures and heavy winds. Therefore the new years bath was cancelled. But what is more natural than STARTING the year by "cleaning up"? When Christian and Thomas came around to tell me they would go swimming, I could not resist. Although - swimming might not be the right word. More like a dipping, maybe?
Nyttårsfeiring
scroll down for English version
The New Year celebration in Ny-Ålesund was magical! 12 women and 20 men from seven different nations enjoyed the last evening in 2010 together. The announced swim in the sea was cancelled due heavy winds and a chilled temperature down to minus 40 degrees. The chances for frost bites were, so the swim had to be postponed. But that did not slow down the celebrations!
