CAMINOVA IN NORVEGIA.

Waiting for the bus and sitting on the metro. Hobo is no longer NoBo.

Cami strikes a deal. More to come...

Skansen - Cradle of 90's clubbing turned Gourmet

In the 90's Skansen was the place to be. Not just for Norwegians, but for all the clubbers of Europe.

Once a place for designer drugs and hardcore clubbing, the new Owners have turned Skansen into a classy restaurant in the afternoon (with chefs from Ekebergrestauranten, the classiest restaurant in town). In the night Skansen assumes its clubbing image and attracts a lot of guests from the Financial District.

Find Skansen near Rådhusplassen, Oslo.

Snowballs

Snowballs!

Now, not the ones made out of real snow, but delicious creamy cream covered in chocolate sprinkled with coconut. And the best thing is that they contain about as many calories as an apple. Yeah, you heard me. So run down to Kokosbollefabrikken A/S in Oslo and leave the apple to rot!

Tasty, light and totally worth it.

Shophopping Oslo edition

Yes!

Factory Outlet is an almost secret shop next to the beautiful river Akerselven, close to Ringens Breweries. They sell only Scandinavian brands, and not only from past collections. Every now and then they hold amazing sales where prices jump as much as 90% from retail price. We were there that day!

We think mores stores should be located around waterfalls.

With all those bags, the way to get home looked steeper than usual.

Vigelandsparken exposed!

Oslo - the Capital of Norway!

We started off dining and then we went sightseeing. Vigelandsparken is one of Oslo's main attractions. With Casanova's new camera we explored the benefits of long exposure. Yeah, we're amateurs, but it turned out quite nice. The park was completely empty, and you could see the stars. Behold our first pieces of, literally, Norwegian art:

That's what I feel sometimes.

Smoking kills.

Who needs Champs Elysees?

The marvel of long exposure...

Good morning pussy.

Moods of Norway Oslo

As you must all know, we spent our last weekend in the fabulous Kingdom of Norway (Sept 11-13th). Flying out on 9/11 was quite a trip, but with Ryanair's fabulous on-time flights, pathetic smokeless cigarettes and six shots of vodka (3 for the price of 2) we made it! These are some of our impressions, or as we could like to call them - MOODS. Here are our Moods of Norway (no, not the clothes):

Dattera til Hagen has beautiful bartenders, good beer, good food and behold the funky lights at the entrance.

Grünerløkka - So Bohemian.

Månefisken - Casanova had his prom here.

You know I'm happy up here.

Kine's Cat. Beware of claws.

Double Oh Birthday

So, the main reason we went to Norway was this party. Casa's sister and her supermodel friend, Kine Irgens are both turning 18 this September. And what better way to celebrate than to throw a James Bond themed party - SKINS STYLE!
