Smooth rock

Smooth rock

Sun kissed red granite rock, smooth and warm in the early summer evening.

Waves softly splashing their eternal soft lullaby, only broken by a jealous seagull scream.

Wind hushes your turmoil of thoughts to gentle stillness like a mothers soft humming.

Yes, it’s true, best things in life are free. Ha de Gött!

In between

In between

Red granit rock gorge in Tjurpannan natural preserve. So very often climbing that hill or rock is worth it. I was already breath taken from the climb so I almost passed out seeing this.

Take time to just feel, ha de Gött!

Kalvö

Kalvö

Kalvö is one of three connected islands outside Havstenssund, Trossö-Kalvö-Lindö. Less than 10 people live on the island all year around but at it’s peak the islands had around 80 inhabitants. The island was an important hub for smuggling people and information for the resistance to the Nazi occupation of Norway during second world war.

Always try to be a good neighbor, ha de Gött!

Upperud locks

Upperud locks

In Upperud there are two locks with a difference in altitude of five meters. This is part of Dalslands Kanal, (see previous post here). The first iron work of Dalsland was founded here in 1647 and in 1840 it was the largest in the area. In the old nearby mansion Napoleons niece, princess Christine Egypta Bonaparte lived together with her husband Arvid Posse.

Don’t let water get in your way, make a waterway. Ha de Gött!

Halden

Halden

Partly cloudy over Halden, Norway. The strong winds tried to push me over the fortress walls so I was glad to have the canon to hold on to.

Behind the clouds, there is always the sun. Ha de Gött!
