I had an early start to the day and was on a bus to meet my friend Anette by 8:15am. I know Anette as she has traveled to the States for the last 5 years at the Ski For Light event. She was nice enough to arrange a free one week pass to her gym/spa. We arrived to her gym and began with a class of pilates. After the class we headed to the luxurious massage chairs. I usually HATE those things, but it honestly felt like real hands were working my back. We even jumped into the sauna, steam bath and hot showers before our next class of yoga began. After a wonderful yoga session we headed across town to eat at her favorite vegetarian restaurant. Anette is perhaps one of the most thoughtful individuals I have ever met. She gave me her completed frequent punch card and I enjoyed a free lunch. Good thing at a whopping $22 for a casual lunch.
After a series of public transportation and walking we made it to her apartment where we quickly transitioned from city girls to hut trip girls like Superwomen. Anette's dad generously picked us up to drop off us at the ski trail head. We lathered on a quick coat of klister wax on our skies (which is disgusting wax one must use during the spring season when the snow is not quite cold enough for typical wax) and off into the woods we went.
After only a short ski in, we found our abode for the evening. Cutest little hut one has ever seen! We spent the rest of the evening chatting away and I finished one of Chad and Angee's pot holders I have been meaning to work on! To answer the mysterious question of what I ate on my 3rd night in Oslo.....wait for it....Mexican! I suppose rice in tomato sauce with the slightest hint of chili could constitute as Mexican. It was such a peaceful, perfect and lovely night Anette and I had.
