If you travel through Sweden, beware. This vehicle is made for to avoid car and motorcycle chase. Had been to much accidents lately where drivers had been stressed by the police with deadly outcome. From now those drivers die anyway. 300Km/h with no licence, not their bike, intoxicated and wheelies.

If the locals could please all buy or borrow hair dryers and spend the few days between now and vim just melting all that white stuff. It would be really appreciated.   ;)

Is there another word for synonym?

Did some warming up in sunday afternoon and evening.
Took the Varadero to Norway for a little ride. First boring E6 and then the fun begun.

Great vid Skye. It was weird, I would have sworn that was 'morning' light, if you hadn't labeled it afternoon/evening. Must your Northern latitude.

The live sequence in the video is between 8-9 pm.

Just for showing you how it is in the mornings in the horizon in same latitude as Oslo.
This photo is shot in 4 am from a hotelroom facing north



It is still a month to summer solstice. Night is never dark.

Thx. I am having to wear a 'sleep mask' here, so I don't wake up in the wee small hours. Does't stop the curlew (Numenius Aquata) screaming at 04:30 though!
