Short Evening Report from Downtown Oslo, Feb 24 - 2011
In spite of what happens of dramas around the World right now, people in Oslo and Norway are focused on something very special:
The FIS Nordic World Ski Championship. Sweden and Norway won Gold on the first Day of Events: Ski Sprint.
Downtown it is several Ice and Snow sculptures, made by different national and internation artists, inspired by Edvard Munch. I took some Photos with my iPhone. The quality is not the best, but it gives you at least an idea….
The podium for the medal ceremonies is in front of the old University.
The Sculptures are in the Karl Johan Street, Oslo’s parade street.
Ice Blocks
The Kids were allowed to play
Here is the Ice Rink next to the Karl Johan street.
More to come…..
Read more from the arenas and the events at RennyBa’s Terella

Thanks for your very kind caring words, Tor....This is a really terrible time, I'm sorry to say. Part of life, I know...But, the pain is palable!
Wow - looks like a very fun time for all! So much so much.. :) We still have snow and no baby yet.. Less snow please! :)
It's great to see something positive in all the negativity of today's world.
Thank you for the photos of a country celebrating, Tor.
