2021. Vi m\u00e5 vel regne med litt sosialt avstumpet liv noen m\u00e5neder til, men jeg h\u00e5per at dere alle har kommet dere igjennom pandemien uten noen andre m\u00e9n enn litt f\u00e6rre selskaper og et par kilo ekstra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>La oss alle feire med m\u00e5te og ta vare p\u00e5 hverandre.

This years photo was taken in January when the snow fell over Trondheim and the old city bridge (Gamle Bybru).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I guess we have all experienced some challenges this year, but let\u2019s hope that the vaccine will change everything when the digits switch to 2021. We will probably still experience some social distancing for a few more months, but I hope that all of you will come through this pandemic with only a few kilos extra and with some social experiences less than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Celebrate the holidays, but take care of yourselves. If everything works out fine we might see each other in the second half of next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the best!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PS: If you do not now this: When christianity came to Scandinavia about 1000 years ago, they tried to sell the name \u201cChristmas\u201d or \u201cKristmesse\u201d as it would be called in Norwegian, for this seasonal celebration. That name never really took hold among the old heathen societies up here in the north. We did accept Jesus (after som heavy pressure and violent missioning), but we still call this holiday for <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Christmas_in_Norway\" target=\"_blank\">Yule or rather \u201cJul\u201d<\/a> &#8211; the nordic name for it. A very old name for a very old holiday tradition and midwinter feast in the norse culture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You will find an English version below.
