A week in the life of...

We do get some questions every now and then about when are we actually home? or where else we are? or what we are doing?
So to give an impression, we collected some material of last week. So here is: 
"a Week in the Life of the Ijskonijnen"

Monday

Since we  signed up for a climbing course the next weekend, we felt we needed a little warmup and practice: After work trip to Skådalen.



















Tuesday

Since Michiel is cycling Lillehammer-Oslo in about 2 weeks, also here a little practice every now and then is preferred. I got inspired and joined in. Result can be seen to the right (from work, 2 rounds into Maridalen, and home again)


Wednesday

Nothing. Nothing??
Not really, we planned on visiting a friend in hospital but that got moved to another day as he was still too tired. 


Thursday

I guess Michiel went cycling, as usual on thursdays. I just did groceries and made dinner:-)


Friday

Kolsåstoppen: first evening of the outdoor climbing course. Building anchors for towrope/rappel, climbing, playing with nuts and cams.

Saturday

More rappel, climbing, placing and cleaning nuts and cams,.... And off course the mandatory Barbecue!




Sunday

Never trust a weather forecast. After 10+ checks on saturday we concluded that there would be so much rain in the early day, that we'd sleep a little longer and see if it would improve. Only to wake up to sunrays beaming onto our bed....
So the afternoon we were at Vardåsen. Doing more climbing.... this time on multiple pitches. The rain/slippery rock made for some interesting grip the first part. But thank god for cracks to jam the feet in!
