Just another post..

So today was another foggy in Voss and I just had to take a picture to show you guys how foggy it gets here, and its actually pretty common.  There is something in this picture that I wanted to post about as well though. There is a new building on campus!  It may not be big but its still a building. It was constructed in tops 5 days by the groundskeeper at the school.  I was amazed at how fast this went up because this man does everything at the school and never stops working, its incredible.

Sheep head for dinner!

Tonight at school we had sheep head for dinner. Now as strange as that sounds it is a tradition and delicacy here in Voss. It is actually more a tradition in Voss than it is anywhere else in Norway. Here are some pictures from the meal I just ate.  And trust me, despite the look of it, it was delicious.

Kayaking.. in a pool!

So.. kayaking in the river is officially over as Frisport is now moving onto rock-climbing and soon skiing.  However, me and two of the other guys from Frisport went kayaing just the other day by ourselves because the water level was just to irresistible.  Along with the water flowing higher than ive ever seen it, it was a sunny day and not to cold!

This is only a side note though.  Today we took a trip to the next kommune (kommune is like a municipality) to go kayaking in a pool.  The purpose of the trip today was to work on the kayak roll which by the end of the day almost everyone had done packed.  As good as it was to get to practice in nice calm, warm water it also gave us a chance to just mess around a bit and let loose =)  We had the pool all to ourselves for about 4 hours!

There are pictures and videos below be sure to take a look!
