Well, i lived tree years in Oslo in the nineties. Some days after marriaging Vigdis, we left Rogaland and moved to Oslo. I was going to be a student at Diakonhjemmets hospital and university college. I was going to be a social worker.
In Oslo Vigdis and i joined the church, Salemkirken.This is a pentecostal church, and through this we got friends for life!
For me Oslo gives remembrances of Akerhus fortress, the main street Karl Johan, Aker brygge where all the sailing boats and small boats are.
Maybe the most valuabled was the first period of marriage with my dear Vigdis. And then the friendship with Per. A walk and talk in the center of Oslo. The fresh air and the view of the Oslo fjord. The camera, Per and I...
This autumn i have been several times in Oslo, because of work. What a privelege meeting my best friend and refresh all the memories which i have tried to take care of.
At my trip to Oslo, some days ago, i had a walk to Akershus fortress and down to the harbour. I listened to Kenny Logins "celebrate me home" (!) with my new mp3-player. And yes, i cried because of all the good things i have in my life! The gardener at Akershus fortress had cut the grass and this scent of new-cut grass and the fresh air of autumn were wonderful! It was OSLO!!! Once again i recognized my remebrances with my nose. the best sense for remembering!
I think it is important to give our remembrances new life. Making prhotos can help.

I get the same feeling when I visit Bergen, where I studiet. Something stirs inside when I approach the city, and the faces of people I met there appear in my heart.
I hope I get a chance to visit there again, soon!
