Pictures from Guillermo's camera and a change in weather

It always takes a lot longer to get the pictures of Guillermo's camera but it's finally done and here are some of them.
These pictures are from Stockholm








These next pictures are from Norway.  We were just fascinated with these kind of roofs.  Some roofs had actual trees growing on them!






The western coast of Norway is rough - our hats off to those people who must endure brutal weather for the better part of a year.




This bridge is on the Atlantic Road.  It was fascinating.  When we took these pictures, it was raining, windy and VERY COLD!!


Now we're traveling back inland.

There's that grassy roof again.  This one is really nice and well taken care of.

This picture is in Trondheim, Norway

There's the boat with which we took the over-night trip to Bergen, Norway.  It being September, and the west coast of Norway, we didn't have good weather for picture taking but it sure gave us an idea of what Nowegians go through weather-wise.



The sun peeked out for a bit, but it never lasted long.


That's a floating bridge, next to the regular bridge.

We are off the boat now, and in Bergen, Norway.  What a nice place - even in the rough weather.  We wish we had been able to spend more time in this town.



That evening we had dinner in a fish market, where you pick the fish that you want cooked for your meal from the display cases.

These next pictures are in Oslo, Norway.

We visited a Viking ship Museum.

Here I'm saying, it's too cold to wait outside - so waiting inside it is!

So, on the day I posted these pictures from Guillermo's camera, that's the day that the weather changed to "winter" here in El Campello.  November 4th.  A good 12 days later than when it turned cold back in 2011.  It was nice to have those extra days of nice warm weather.  November 4th was ugly - cold, dark, extremely windy and rainy all day long.  But the very next day, it was beautiful and sunny, just still cold.
