Indescribable beauty around midnight…
Myself and Finnbjörn of Litlaeyri – the neighbouring farm, have been practising Kalos Sthenos (Beautiful Strength) or the “Turkish Get Up” for a while now.
This is a complicated movement which calls every muscle in the body into play, and we felt quite accomplished when we both succeeded with 16k for the first time today (one Pood) – feeling quite good in the process !
Once I can perform this movement with 48kg and flawless technique, I will consider myself ready to start Olympic Weightlifting again.
A great Humpback whale has been feeding in the fjord again this summer.
I noticed a great splash in the sea through the radio shack window.
Unfortunately the whale was far from the shore, and it did not clear the water again once I had the camera ready.
