One of the sunny days!!!

I hope it was not the last one this month ;-)

I took the opportunity to walk a bit around and actually I felt kind of weird wearing a jacket when most of the people around had just T-shirts on them.

The photos below were collected during the walk and thay are not showing any posters or postcards. (Yes, there are some flowers here, Mom!)

First day at work ...

...was very positive ! Ufff :-)

I received a resonable dose of the administrative information and will get quite strong support with fixing all the formalities on arrival: registration on the police station and the request for the tax card. The laptop together with all the accounts were ready...
Really well organised...

As I was told, representatives of 27 different nations are working at CIPR. Including myself there are 1.5 Poles... I haven't met the 0.5 Pole yet ;-)

Reactions on the fact that 'Ola' is a shortname from 'Aleksandra':
* 'Ola'? It sounds rather Spanish...
* 'Ola'? What does it stands for?
* 'Ola'? Oh really? We use it here as well ... for males!


About the weather:
It is very difficult to decide whether it is still summer of already autumn:

But actually it is not important, you will get wet anyway ;-)

Here I am!

It is pretty difficult to call it a 'warm welcome'...
On the other hand it can only be better ;-)

Norway... already tomorrow!!!

Wow! Time is flying!!!! Tomorrow I will already be in Bergen!

The bags are ready: almost 20kilos of the over-luggage...

The last beer on our terrace tonight, tomorrow slow breakfast with the view on the lake and...

here I go Norway!!! :-)

Last days, last flight...

I managed to fly twice more :-]
And even made some photos during the flight...

I still cannot convince myself to leave the stearing handles during the flight in order to take some good photos thus the photos are... well, pretty bad...

On the last photo, belive me or not, it is me :-)

Flying again :-)

Yes!!! The weather was just perfect - two flying days in a row.
BTW: This will probably never happen in Bergen ;-)

Anyway, flying here in Italy could be very difficult in August since all the people are on holidays!!! Chiuso per ferie!!! Thanks to Karin, Wim and their jeep we manged to reach the top of the Monte Nudo anyway! Thanks a lot!

Thursday's flight: the highest point was around 1400m this time :-)

The Friday's flight was pretty turbulent... I had the biggest closure ever: according to Rafal only 1/3 of the wing was flying... I must admit, I got scared... but just for some seconds ;-)

Lago Vinnano

We had a great pleasure to admire the Nature in Piemonte in a great company!

We started with a bit cloudy weather:


but after heavy sweting we were awarded with some goregreous views:

View on the Lago Vinnano


If you only want - the distance doesn't matter!!!


Flowers look better in the nature than in the vase :-)
