This is very unusual. I can´t remember when the last time was we had such long, icy cold winter, I think it is about 20 years ago. Now we have had continual frost since the first snow fell 16th December. 2 nights ago it was minus 17 degrees, and yesterday the temperature rose to minus 4, but with wind too, it is SO cold.

The waters in the harbours is beginning to freeze, and it gives problems to the ships.


The ducks are swimming in icy waters.


The coastlines are filling up with ice.


The sign says No diving, but I´m told 9 people goes down here every morning for a quick dip, brrrrrrr.


I bet, these two are happy for their warm coat.


And the other day the sun came out, and gave a beautiful polar sunset.
