Casual kilting at the cottage!

On saturday 14. March me and some friends gathered together at the sauna cottage we have up in the woods. We fired up the stoves and went skiing for 1 1/2 hour. when we got back the sauna was god and hot, 72 celsius. After a long and warm steam in the sauna we had a good meal with lots of beverage. The ski trip home late at night was a strange experience. It felt like I never have had skis on my feet before. I wonder why. Could it be the kilt? No...
Once a year we have something like a highland game at the cottage. Last year there were 3 of us in kilts. Now we decided that all of the participants has to wear kilts. In May we are going to participate in a relay race in Oslo and I have decided to run in my kilt. hope to get some pics of that.

Here is a picture of me at the cottage.

Here is me in safety after the steep hills down from the cottage.

Kilted skiing might well be a future Winter Olympics event!

I tried skiing in Norway and discovered that I was very good at going ass over tip!
