Oslo

I am now at Mik's place in Oslo, very nice apartment.
My trip from the airport into town felt like guesswork. I couldnt read my ticket and it took most of the trip for the gps to kick in and show me where I was.
I got here however and Oslo looks really cool.

Oktoberfest

Went and rode the rollercoaster and wandered around at oktoberfest today. Fun fun.
Went to a cool place called the Augustiner afterwards where a friendly german dude told us all about the history. The place has been brewing beer since the 1400s

Jonathan took this pic of me bouldering in Fontainebleau, France.

an update finally

Ive been meaning to update the blog for a few days now. Been keeping my head down here in Munich. The weather hasnt been so great and there was 2 days that i didn't go outside.

Its Oktoberfest here at the moment which means a lot of drunk people stumbling around and puking on things.

I shall be uploading more pictures in a moment and perhaps a couple videos. I streamed a new qik video today also from a really sexy cafe we had tea at.

More climbing

I've just woken up and we have today and tomorrow left to climb before
we are out of here.

Time for breakfast and a shower, we have been eating a lot of baguette
with Brie, good cheese is so cheap here as is good bread. We often sit
in a small cafe somewhere and drink espeesso also. I don't usually
drink coffee but it seems appropriate.

Yesterday was a rest day, we went in to Fontainebleau town and
wandered around, saw the chateau and took pictures etc. The chateau
was pretty amazing I must say. Oh and we also saw a huge sculpture of
a cyclops head in the forest that an artist had installed. It was
pretty huge and made of iron with what looked like big gears sticking
out and a tiled face. See pictures for a better idea of what I'm
talking about.

Brian and sandra left us to go back to Switzerland yesterday so it is
just Jonathan Mik and I for the next couple days before Jonathan and I
head back to Germany and Mik heads back to Norway.

More pics uploaded

Uploaded about 90 new pics in the past day or so.

Climbing

Fontainebleau really is an amazing spot for bouldering. It could keep
me amused for weeks and months and years. I shall have to come back
for another trip as this one will definitely be too short.

The past few days have been a blur. We have been driving like French
people through tiny streets trying not to hit things in our rental car
with me desperately trying to navigate the rabbit warren of streets
with my gps.

Paris was great to see but after spending so much time in big cities
lately I was happy to get out of it and into the French countryside.

I will try to upload a few pics from Paris tomorrow and endeavor to
take some pics of Fontainebleau and all the boulders we are climbing

Fontainebleau

Real quick update. Made it through paris and got to font. Brian,
sandra, mik and jonathan are with me. Off to climbing! More later
