After breakfast I went to the free library to drop off some books, and collect some more. Managed to leave twice as many as I took. Then I went for a walk around the Henie Onstad Sculpture Park, Veritas Park, and the adjacent beach.

Walking down a steep track in the woods

Posing in the sun in a clearing

Approaching Ragnarok for 117th time. That's the title not the number of times I have visited it.

Striding away from Ragnarok

The gatehouse at the entrance to Veritas Park by road

Looking down the slope toward the fountain

Having a brief paddle in the cold water

Too chilly to stay in for long

Most of the benches on the beach are occupied

The philosopher's stone. The famous Norwegian philosopher Arne Næss used to like to sit on it.

Well the label actually says philosophy stone not philosopher's stone.

A few metres further on it was time to sit in the sun for a moment. And there was a pretty young lady sunbathing topless a bit further on

Then it was time to head home via IKEA for a slice of napoleonskake and cope of glasses of sparkling raspberry drink before doing a little shopping for Sunday. had to make sure I had everything because everything will be closed tomorrow as it is 17th May tomorrow, Constitution Day.
