O-Ball

Finally the long waited day and o-ball. I don’t actually know for how long and who had been waiting for it but I think long enough. Before starting the officiel partying there was official un-official ski jumping competition and the longest jumps were around 20 meters. Not quite that bad at all. And I am pretty sure norwegians are just crazy on skis. After two hours of intensive spectating it was finally time for sauna. The problem with the sauna was that is was more like bastu but what wouldn’t a finn do to make it better. Nice big bucket of water and a hose worked quite good. Though there is nothing you can do to the construction.

After washing up and freshing up it was time for the gala, ball, party. Nice and not so long speeches and singing performances and some good food and maybe good company.

While others started to settel down and maybe start looking for a place to sleep or to continue partying I did another choice and prepared to take a walk back home. It didn’t feel so long on the way up while running a test run but while walking down in the middle of the night the downhill just wasn’t going to end at all. And now I don’t know if I still want to run up there again. It is a huge hill.

I managed to take some nice photos of the ski jumpers.
