Just fabulous. I'm green with envy. We see the northern lights so seldom these days. Too many street lights up here. I'm hoping the local council decide they will turn off the lights at midnight to save money!!

I'd really like to see that with my own eyes once ... even Germany is too far in the south for northern lights β€” except once in 2005, but the sky was all cloudy in that night, so I missed the chance.

Holy Frick. All I can say is, Holy frick.

Awesome colors. Didnt think it was possible to catch the true beauty of Aurora Borealis. You managed, and quite well, I might add.

I was out that night, and caught some awesome sunset pics. This far south, the only real evidence was an extremely bright band of green, and the brilliance of the colors. Never seen a sunset like that one before!! Beautiful pics!

ookkaayyy... so we need to arrange a group gazing at the Northern Lights one year...

...bring Bente *Lejonlurv over from Norway......

and i'll bring my hammock......(and a few tropical coconut cocktails from the islands - purely to keep us warm you understand)...



Simply stunning, 'd.....

heyyy! thanks for inviting me over... didn't see this until now.. just woke up... I'm ready, but I want to sit in the comfy couch too! you think it'll be room for me as well?

I can bring my :dancemat: to have something fun to do while waiting... and a few bottles of red wine, sΓΈrlandschips (the best chips you can get in Norway) and...

... I didn't see any no smoking-signs so.. if ya'll don't mind, I'll bring my L&M Menthol as well...


I'm rrrready!

And now you're bringing Matt? Better watch it - I think *asymons was out with Matt the other day... he certainly gets around!


At least tell me you and Matt know Jimmy Buffet tunes

well, I'm not the expert of the English language... I thought you were... But to dance with Matt... and a dance mat... to me sounds like two very different things... Perhaps I'm wrong. In that case I'll sue my old school...

K, guys - one thing that I would like to make clear to all of you here: the Geek (*hansepe ) is mine . So the two inches of room left on there after he parked on it are mine as well....



Hey, I'll be happy to second-hand smoke, if that means a chance to meet everyone and drink and sing. On a sofa, outside.

Lejonlurv In reply to verero [2004-11-19 14:57:11 +0000 UTC]

sure, we'll park that couch outdoors.. and you can second hand smoke.. and you can have hansepe almost all to yourself.. I might just chatter a bit with him in Norwegian... so noone else will understand what we're saying. Not to worry, we'll just discuss the latest happenings in Norway - nothing romantic or anything.

anyhoo.... you are most welcome to the edge of the you'll have the toned muscles of a russian gymnast clinging to the side of that baby.....

I'm swaying away in my hammock (with ear plugs in).... Bente's dancing on her dancing mat (WTF? none of my mats dance at all... they just lay there - useless bloody things... i obviously need the Norwegian variety).... and K.... well i think he's probably a tad right about now....

hehe, that's so cool! I've learned a bit belly dancing.. went to two courses. It's fun and I love that arabic music! I have some cd's with cool arabic pop.. I will bring them..

Cool - I was going to call dibs on the anyway

hmmm... maybe we dump the idea, grab a couple more hammocks and mix up a bunch of Margaritas . We can watch the lights and drink until we think we're in Margaritaville!

We'll need a guitar (and somebody to play it) so that ~verero and I can sing Jimmy Buffett tunes... when the songs start to sound good we'll have had enough to drink!

Now you just have to organize... no wait.. Aussie and Canadians... organiSe an extension cord long enough for the blender! I'm guessing ice won't be a problem in Canada

Just trying to humoUr the Aussie... she gets defensive aBOOT the extra U and use of Zed in words...

Looks like a party starting here... We'll need the right kind of food... so... who brought the chips? No, wait a minute... chips is something different everywhere too... crisps... err, fries, no wait...

Better stick to to go with my whine...

Is it true there's like 42 in a metric six-pack? That and some crullers might do fine too.

The Margaritas are only consumed for the water in the ice you know. Thats my story, I'm sticking to it

As for the guitar - I was hoping you had that covered. Its cool if you know at least one tune - ANY tune - wouldn't be the first time we've had to sing a bunch of songs to only one tune It'll sound better as the night progresses... trust me!


Has anybody metioned what a nice photograph this is?

Its such a sad thing for D... we must expand his musical repertoire to include Jimmy Buffet.

Abita Amber and Turbodog are the closest we get to real beer in NOLA. They shouldn't damage your palate irreparably.


Changes in attitudes, changes in latitudes, nothing remains quite the same. With all of our running and all of our cunning if we couldn't laugh we would all go insane...
