Finally done with moving
Last week on this day everything was still in chaos. Monday I had to get done the apartment we rented. But today was kind of the first day when I finally could relax a bit. I settled with some painting yesterday, but today I was out to enjoy the sun. As I am still living in Norway and I won't leave for any other country very soon, the sun is out by like 9 am and he's down at 4 pm and if you don't get out to florish in the sun when you can, life is getting a bit difficult :'D
Sooo as I was out to find out the quickest way from home to the city centre, I took some nice photos of the Christmas decorations. I mean, nothing special in the sunlight, but I promise I will also take photos when it's darker out. But have these for now.
All very nice subtle Christmas decorations. But you know, every city needs the one enthusiast that's faaaar beyond sanity. In my city it's a pub called "Beverly's" x'D
I wonder what this will look like when it's actually dark out... I will definitely come back and take a look. It's very blingbling flashy flash overload x'D
But, I had my first Bubble Tea in Norway. It was Matcha dream and wow, they had really good matcha. You know, not that cheap weird stuff you sometimes get at cafés. This was the real thing >w< My sis had a Mango Tango bubble tea and I have to say, that mango taste was really delicious, I can just recommend that place.
And here, a photo of my neighbourhood on my way home. Afternoon-mood with the mood. Also, we found a hobby art-and-crafts store out of the blue. And I was in my local nerd store of choice to ask for the Husky and his White Cat Shizun since they didn't get any stocks yet. At least not yet xD I hope they will next week, if they do I'm in surely on my way to take evening photos very soon x'D
That was around 4 pm. The sun is about to set, so this was all for today :)

🎄Merry Christmas to those who celebrate, please enjoy these festive-looking hedgehogs.🎄
(In the medieval bestiary, the hedgehog's story usually involved it rolling around and collecting fallen fruit on its quills to bring home to its children - fruit kebabs to go!)

Tree night from the Paramount, 1930. Unless the perspective is off, this tree looks even bigger than the ones that would later grace Rockefeller Center.

Christmas market in Sandnes
I took these photos today when I went to the rented flat for the last time. This is a tiny farewell to Sandnes, which was very nice to me for two years. I moved to Stavanger on Saturday and that will be extremely nice from now on onwards. However, the Winterland in Sandnes is something I really like seeing. I'm not the biggest fan of Christmas, but Chistmas markets and lighting has its own flair, I like it at least.
