Midsummer Oslo 2009

As you can see the site has a new look. Been working on this all weekend. There is one more tweak to be done, but that can wait.

Its getting pretty warm here in Oslo, i am glad i am heading to Indian in a weeks time. Speaking of which i will be Delhi for a week or so.

Did some more work on my Quake3 map.

Weekend was spend with friends enjoying the midsummer.

Gressholmen May 2009

Gressholmen is an islet located in the Oslofjord, just south of central Oslo. Administratively it belongs to the borough of Gamle Oslo.

Gressholmen airport was for the years 1927 through 1939 the location of the main airport for Oslo, until the construction of Fornebu airport. The airport was only for seaplanes.

You take a ferry from Aker Brygge (left side towards the castle), you can use the same tickets you use for the bus/train.
