THE TALL SHIP RACE I FREDRIKSTAD

 Det er sommer og tid for feriebesøk. Da eldste sønn var hjemme var det Tall Ship Race i nabobyen Fredrikstad, så da passet det bra med en tur dit. Det var flott å gå og se på alle de flotte seilskutene på rekke og rad. It is summer and time for holiday visits. When the eldest son was at home, there was the Tall Ship Race in the neighboring town Fredrikstad, so we took a trip there. It was great to go and look at all the beautiful  sailing ships .

Noen skuter kunne en komme ombord på også. En av dem var Fryderyk Chopin fra Polen. You could get on board some of  the ships. One of them was Fryderyk Chopin from Poland.

Jeg tok raskt styringa 😀. I quickly took control 😀.

Og her er min matros! And here is my sailor!

Det var også fint å sette seg ned på en benk og se på folkelivet. Og det var mye godt å få kjøpt. Vi  kjøpte Belgisk vaffel med krem, jordbær og sjokoladesaus.  Glemte å ta bilde av den, den var så fristende så den var nesten spist opp da jeg kom på det. Strawberry heaven, het den. Den var mektig, jeg og min kjære delte en, og det var rikelig til begge. It was also nice to sit down on a bench and watch people walking by. And there was a lot of good food to buy. We bought a Belgian waffle with cream, strawberries and chocolate sauce. Forgot to take a picture of it, it was so tempting that it was almost eaten by the time I remembered. Strawberry heaven, it was called. Me and my husband shared one and it was plenty for both of us.

Bilde fra Waffel Factory, men det var enda mer krem og sjokoladesaus på den vi kjøpte 😋

Picture from Waffel Factory, but the one we bought had even more cream and chocolate sauce 😋
