Bergen, Norway Day 2

Day 2 in Bergen started off super rainy. Like pouring down rain so we relaxed in our room until lunchtime. Today we went to the Inside Rock Cafe which once again has burgers! I had the Dr. Feelgood burger whcih came with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, BBQ sauce and you could get fries or onion rings or both so I went with both! The lady we ordered from even went and checked to make sure everything was vegan for me which was nice. Vegan onion rings!! This was delicious. One of our favorite burgers of the trip.

Then it has stopped raining so hard so we wandered around a bit more

Wandering in Bryggen

And spent a good part of the afternoon looking for street art

"There are a lot of good people around"

for dinner we went to Ma-Ma Thai which was recommended. Pad Thai which was good

And a curry - also tasty

The Thai place was by the lake and the clouds were crazy

And that was our time in Bergen. Next stop - Stavanger!

Stupid Libraries.

So I only have six minutes left and just wasted a few seconds letting you know, but I need some assistance in getting things off our iPod onto the net. In the last town we were in, I came so close to getting it up only to be thwarted by the only damn cd -burner in the shop being broken. This is the problem: my iPod is mac formatted - the folks at Apple thought it would be hilarious to not include some sort of compatibility between windows and mac versions of iTunes to read the voice memos you record from any computer. If your iPod formatted on a mac (I believe it's HSF +), windows iTunes will tell you to reformat the buggar . And get this, the iPod records voice memos in old school PC style wav files. What the hell. Anyway, I can't test or install things on this library computer, but if someone checking the blog who is tech savvy could find a program to retrieve data from a mac formatted iPod from a windows machine - a program that doesn't use a god damn install

The First Two Weeks

From In Berlin Hello! So I have been here just over 2 weeks now which is a bit crazy and things are finally coming together. I really like our apartment. Lots of room and it is very quiet as we are a block off the main road. We finally got some furniture last week so the place is not as empty and we actually have chairs to sit on and a bed to sleep in (that is not the noisy air mattress). I even have my craft table set up, but I am still looking for storage for my fabrics and such (the ones I wanted were out of stock). Yesterday I sewed up curtains for the front windows so we can have the privacy blinds (big metal blinds that come down and cover the front windows and are on most of the ground floor windows around town) up and Raymond won't freak out that people can see in.The bedroom/my craft room is pretty much done. The back of the house gets much better light during the day so I set up shop back there to take advantage of it. If I worked in the front rooms I would need the
