England – Goodrich

Sorry it is a bit late but here are some pictures from England, where I spent a few days looking at castles, forests, sheep and drinking cider.

Brunch

Brunch is a meal that you eat in the late morning as a combination of breakfast and lunch (Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary). My favourite meal is a late breakfast. There are probably many good places to have a brunch. But here are some I have found:

– Hotel Restaurant Baseltor in Solothurn. Here you get a traditional Swiss brunch in the nice hotel in the old town of Solothurn.

Glenwood Restaurant Campus in Eugene (OR). If you ever go to Eugene in the United States this is the place for a real American brunch. Reservation at the weekends recomended.

Gudvangen Fjordtell. In this remote but beautiful place we had brunch after camping. The place is a wooden house with a lot of glas and you get a good view of the fjord. Very traditional Norwegian brunch.

A winter day in Tromsø

On a sunny day like I had last Friday in Tromsø I understand why people can live so far up in the north. One such day makes up for a lot of bad weather. They stop work early (earlier than 3:30) and jump on their ski’s. Really bad I didn’t have time for that but I have to come back one day.

69°N

I finally reached my northern most site. For all who don’t know I will do a transplant experiment this summer where I will plant species from Switzerland and Norway to 5 different places. And two of them are in Norway and I am visiting them at the moment. But plantig is far away here. It’s still deep winter. About 1m snow, it’s still snowing and temperature is around 0°C. But the days are getting longer: 5:30 – 20:00, top that!

Sun and snow

Another day in Trondheim. The sun was shining in the morning when we had a look at the dom. We had a chat with the gardener at Dragvoll later and met an exchange student from ETH. I hope everything is ready for the experiment now. Tonight we will travel to Tromsø.

Trondheim

After 13 hours I arrived in Trondheim, home. Norway is always a coming home. There was snow, but it was not very cold. I enjoy a week back in winter.

After the work for my project we enjoyed a walk through the city between heavy snowfall and sunshine.
