  God Jul means Merry Christmas, the holiday for a family. However, I have slept almost 18 hours continuously.  
 
  From the left: 3 Wisemen, John, Maria, Jesus, Angel and Sheep-keeper. A well-known story around the cheerful Christmas Eve.  
   
         
   
  Spending 3000 kr to send Christmas gifts to HK, Japan, Australia .. just to think of the excitements of my friends have when opening their presents.  
 
  Cut a pig skin into stripes. Put on marinated ingredients and bake until crispy. Not as good as Chinese one, but it is a common snack in Norway.  
   
         
   
  Cookie for the Holiday. Texture likes "Jiang Su Bing". The long one tastes like Egg Roll snack. Really want to express them to my friends.  
 
  Tore's home. With all the familiar and strange faces, I prefer to look at the different shoes by the front door, trying to figure out their owners characters.  
   
         
   
  This year Nobel Peace Prize winner, Wangari Maathai "Human Rights are Women's Rights" has become the highlight of this year's parade.  
 
  Bought a strawberry pie from supermarket for 90 Krone, about HKD100. It is so tasty that I bought another one in a couple of day.  
   
         
   
  1st time to bake bread at new home. Unlike the previous ones that burnt, it tastes good too. However, it becomes very hard when cools down.  
 
  Gucao, my friend has made me a CD of different movie theme songs. They remind me of those movie scenes.  
   
         
   
  This year, Central Station hires 25 artists to decorate one tree per day as an Advent Calendar hanging outside the station wall.  
 
  Snow covers the front lawn. Besides people and dogs's footsteps, there are also traces of kids's snow sleds.  
   
         
   
  No idea since when the Christmas Bell has become a must decoration on Kral Johan. It looks exceptionally bright on this quiet winter night.  
 
  Norwegian tradition: early December, people will put 25 needle-liked spice onto an orange. They will take out one everyday until Christmas.  
   
         
   
  Ikea's restaurant has promoted traditional Christmas food now. Sausage, meat balls, & pork, with marinated veggie and potato.  
 
  Shortly after we moved, nearby supermarket puts up a new rose in front to welcome us. I really like its figure.
