Atle Frydenlund
Arendal, Norway

 A lovely little place, with big boats, fancy cars and rich people.

Learn how to solve Rubik's Cube.  Do it without cheat sheets. I did it. Had to learn it through youtube videos. Finally after 30 year ;-)

 50 000 steps in one day finish. Made 57 799 steps and manage to complete a marathon at the same time.

 Travel with a cabel ferry.

Verdens Ende “The World’s End” is located outside Tønsberg in Færder National Park. Verdens Ende is 1 of 5 “World’s Ends” in the world. Here you get majestic views to the horizon. Verdens Ende is probably best known for Vippefyret, built...

 Denmark’s northernmost point, Grenen, hosts a unique natural phenomenon. Here, two seas meet, namely the Skagerrak and the Kattegat; and the collision of the waves is visible to the naked eye. This fascinating tourist attraction, Grenen...

 We went to Hadeland glassverk to make our own glass. It was funny but felt like an assembly line. The employes was in a hurry and the queue was long.

 On the New York Times 52 places to go in 2020. A fantastic park with a stunning building called The Twist. 

I finaly did see a hedgehog in the wild. It was actually at the most popular pub in my town in the middle of the corona epedemi.

The first time I have seen dolphines in Arendal, Norway.   https://www.instagram.com/p/CAIwnrwDmqR/  

Well, that was a disappointment. It had the right texture but the taste was to sweet. It work together with ice though.

Good times. The temperature was around 2 degrees celsius. The rocks was not very eager to stop where I wanted it to stop.

 A nice park. Loved the rockwoodrainforrest....

 This was a nice experience. The weather was good and the climb was hard. I did this alone and slept in my car. Thumbs up!

I have done this once. Little training, down and off we went. I did not manage to release the pressure in my ears so the experience was not that good. 

 Went to Shoreditch and finally found the Banksy piece hidden in the backyard of a club. The pic was hidden behind plexiglas and a bench(?). A bucketlist element checked. The streets were full of amazing streetarts. A great place for all...

 Well, if you find the right phote booth it's ok. Some of the are just public toilets.

 We had a contest where we had to eat a living worm. I eat one, forgot to take a photo for my bucketlist, and eat another one just for you guys.

Just seen Sour Angelica by Puccini at Oslo Opera House. Fortunately we hade a intro course about the play in advance, without that we would not have understand the play at all. The singing is not my cup of tea. I will probably never go t...

You haven't been to Riga if you did not taste Black Balsam. 

 A beautiful train and a stunning trip. This was fun.

Walk on the new sherpa stairs all the way up mount Fløya in Tromsø. We got a lovely weather. The view was stunning.

Tromsø aquarium together with my wife.

Living in Norway the magic of the midnight sun is not that spetacular. But it is a strange experience to leave the pub and there is still sunny. Dagfulla hele dagen lang...

 It has been a long time since I bench pressed 100 kg. That is why I wanted to do it again. My bucketlist only includes new things I have done as a grown up. Last time I bench pressed 100 kg I think was in my twenties. 

 Train every day for one month. Every workout count, but it has to be a workout. A workout without training clothes is not a workout. A workout without sweat is not a workout.

Finally I saw a badger in the wild. Out driving at Saturday around midnight a saw what I thought was a cat beside the road. But it happened to be a badger. It ran away into the woods when I stopped. I did not get a picture of it.

 Don't sit down at the end of the trail. ;-)

 Expensive. Not comfy. Noisy.

Good company, home made food, but the taste was a little disappointment. I thought it should have tasted a little bit more. 

 I loved this. The park was not that big, but it was really nice. 

 This was quite good. Two was enough.

 This was far from my favorite food experience. Maybe next time ....

Got invited to dance together with a flamenco dancer.  After consumption of some alcohol the answer was of course yes. I was so lucky a colleague taped the dance. ;-)

It was not easy to find the bar. But I loved it. The drink was good and the interior was cool. The bar in number 20 of the best bars in the world of 2017.

First time running 21 km. My feet did not like it that much, but it was a nice experience. I am glad I did not sign up for a complete marathon.

Gaustatoppen 1800 meters above sea level is hosting a concert at night. 7000 people attended. The weather was great. No wind. The hike is 2,5 hours up and 1 hour down. 

Tried this today. It was fun, but the car was only driving in 20 km/t. As a digital advisor this is quite interesting.

  I tried this last week. It was summertime and they only had bobsleigh with wheels, but the speed was phenomenal. 3,5 G in the turns.

  Yes, I finally did it. Maybe I have to set a new goal now?

The tree we find is not all that. But it is from our own forest and that is cool. 

  Bought myself a Stetson hat today. It was quite good. The quality seems excellent.

See the rock carvings at Lillehammer 

 Clubbing in the morning - started at 07.15 am - very unusual and funny.

 Been there twice. Nice windsurfing spot. 

 Tried this today at Aquarama in Kristiansand. It was fun. Not that difficult, but I did fall quite often and my body felt it.

Take a trip to Sweden just for shopping. In Norway this is called "Harryhandel" because it is cheaper than i Norway and most of us buy alcohol and sweets.  

 IKT Agder dagen 2017 - almost 150 people present

  Ice skating in the middle of Oslo, the capital of Norway

  I tried to visit Skålatårnet on top of the mountain in Loen. It was hard. I used snowshoes but the snow was not hard enough and I sank down to my knees all the time. I had to give up.

 http://trollaktiv.no/rafting/ - great fun, cold water.

This is a nice attraction in little Aalesund. The steps are white and looks cool. Had me a beer at the top!!! 

 Ride Fløibanen in Bergen, Norway. https://youtu.be/PdFPY7XU9R0    

It is leaning more than you think. Top of the tower is displaced horizontally 3.9 metres (12 ft 10 in) from the center. Quite expensive to get up, but worth the money.

 Tried parasailing after a car, that was not a good idea. Tried after a boat and the rope snapped, that was scary. Worked as a parasailing instructur in Norway a summer.

Stuck in Italy - the whole family sleeping on the floor at the airport

 One week alone in Tenerife.

 Went to my dentist dressed as an elf and took a selfie with the tooth fairy.

The ride was up to Teide, the vulcano at Tenerife. 

Well, I did of course arrive ten minutes to late to actually get in front of the tree. But I did not give up and went in to the little town. From there there were a nice view of the tree after all. And the town was very nice to. Tenerif...

 A bit too small waves for my tasting and I am not sure I can call me a surfer yet but I tried and managed to catch a wave or two.

Slept in a room together with ten others. I was no problem. But the beds where not high standard and my back started to complain after some days. You do meet some strange people on these places.

 Cinema Paradiso at my local pub

 Drive your on car at the beach. Where it is allowed of course. This summer at Løkken beach for many kilometers.

Eat food from a real foodtruck.

  Bjarne Melgaard at Fineart

By on a roadtrip and sleep in the car. Freedom. Bought me a VW Caddy Maxi and has several nights already.

The water taste very good. I have done this many times. I never get sick of it, but i read that I should have used iodine i the water to be more safe.

Guttetur til Barcelona 2015

 Well okey - sweet but not stunning

The subwing is easy to use and a lot of fun. But this year the water was incredible cold and I got a freezing head after a few seconds.

 This time it was only on our way back from a vacation in Italy. We missed the plain and got stuck in Denmark. Not so much fun. Everyone extreme tired. No beers this time.

 Not the best paella I have tried.

Lillehammer 94  

 The best way to enjoy a swim. Picture taken at Lindesnes lighthouse, at the southernmost tip of Norway.

It was only a 87% eclipse and it did not happen much.
