My big fat greek holiday

First of all I apologize for the lack of blogs lately. I've had a serious case of writers block.

Well, that and the fact that I really feel like there's been nothing worth blogging about, mostly because I've been worn out from work.

Now I've had 3 weeks holiday, and am partially rejuvenated, so I'll give it a shot again.


First holiday week was spent in Oslo. I had an idea that I should eat more sushi, so off I went. Booked hotels and all, 3 nights in one, 1 at another. Spent too much money, didn't feel very relaxed at all, because the first hotel room was at a noisy street, and the second one was a smoking room, and all night I felt like throwing up at the smell.
Went to the Øyafestival for a day, to see a couple of gigs and pretend to be young again. It was raining cats and dogs that day, and I stood there, mid mud, but managed to get through 10 gigs before the day was over. So was pleased with that.

Then back home for a week. Attended a friends wedding, which was really nice.



Decided it was time to spend some days with my boyfriend, so packed my suitcase and headed to Narvik.

He was still working, so I just hung around there, doing nothing. Then on saturday we got up bright and early, and headed to the airport. Ahead of us was a week in the sun sun sun, which we sadly can't say we have had much of up here this summer.

Destination Crete

The place was tranquil and awesome, I really enjoyed every minute of the week there. Sun, warmth, hotel pool, beach, downtown with restaurants and all kinds of crazy gadgets..



We ate, we bathed, sunbathed, caught a few freckles, a burnt wrist and a few fried shoulders.. (everything quite normal), but most of all, we relaxed and loved every minute of it.
I can honestly say I felt like a new, fresh person after 1 day down there. Exactly what the doctor prescribed.

Will now put a few photos from my trip, didn't take many, but I guess a select few are suitable for blog posting.
