Stavanger, Norway Day 3 & 4

Stavanger day three was our official unofficial street art tour! We downloaded a map of the past street art festival art locations and set off to explore finding lots of stuff along the way. This post will once again be mostly street art/graffiti. Stavanger loves it and so do we!








So tiny!

Pictures in the bricks!




I loved these that were made to look like apartment buildings
















































Tou Scene has tons and tons of street art on the buildings in the area




















He was really cool - made out of lots of materials

Sitting in the park


With a strange water thing. It was constantly just spinning the water




Lunch at Ostehuset. Avacado toast I think (I don't remember, and can't find an english menu)

And a taco salad. Both were delicious, but not much food

Started to clear up after lunch





























We went to Gadja Etiopisk for dinner and this was my favorite Ethiopian food! So so so good. Started with a Sambossa

And a vegan platter with red and green lentils, berbere, spinach, yellow chickpeas, beets, cabbage and carrots, and oh it was delicious!! Highly recommend this place





The next morning was sunny and beautiful! But we had a plane to catch in the afternoon so no grand hiking adventures for us. Next time. 












Last lunch was at the Inside Rock Cafe (same chain we ate at in Bergen). These burgers are so tasty!

And we got a side of onion rings because I wanted more!

And that was it for our trip to Norway last year. I loved Stavanger even though the people seemed angry. I loved the street art and wandering around looking for things. We will definitely have to go back one year for the festival!

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

Paris here we come!

So not much to update since the last time. I'm trying to think what we even did the past two weeks. Well last weekend was roller derby nationals in Atlanta, GA and is the first time we haven't gone to nationals in...4 years! We have gone the past 4 years so it was a little sad not to be there. However they do stream it live for a small fee so we did that so last weekend lots of roller derby was watched! Luckily it was on the east coast so it was only 6 hours difference so we didn't stay up too too late (Sat I think we got to bed at like 3am) and we got to watch Gotham win again! It was fun watching from the couch, but I much prefer to be there. I mean when I would be yelling at the TV and clapping and cheering when something good happened and it is just not the same when it is just me doing that. The claps echo in the room...Next year is going to be in Milwaukee which I don't really know anything about, but apparently they have a lot of vegan food. We shall see if we ma

The end

So it started raining on us for days and we cut out to come back to Seattle for a few days and wait for it to clear up.....and then Raymond decided he really did not want to go back out. So I at first was pretty upset cause I really wanted to get to Canada, or at least as far as we could while the weather was still nice this weekend. And I was feeling really like we were giving up for no reason. Like if one of us were injured or if I was hating it or something then I would have been better about it. But instead it was like the forecast called for gorgeous weather this weekend and we were just going to sit at home. I figured we could have at least gotten to the next stop and then only had one more chunk to do next year, but Raymond really didn't want to go back out so we decided not to. But hopefully by this time next year we will get the last 2 sections done, and maybe go back and do the section from white pass to snoqualmie as we went RIGHT by Mt Rainier and it is supposed to be g
