As someone else here, we

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

walk every day, so here are some images from this walk.

A walk from an old railway line, throught the woods

and a view as over our neighbourhood as we come out of the woods

and down by the river again

where it changes fast

we are rounding the bend and almost home.


and after a little rest, well this is what it looks like some times.

It's good to walk. Especially around places such as these. Don't you do Nordic Walking, Ivar? It's getting known around these parts too. Not for me, though.

 

[Pete Askew]

Wonderful set, Ivar. The third to last is my favourite though.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Lovely route and shots Ivar

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Thank you gents and Rob what is the Nordic walking? Is it as if you are skiing without skiis. In that case, I'm out, but I do carry a monopod at times and in the mountain it's been a great help for support and crossing rivers and brooks.

 

[Pete Askew]

That' the one, Ivar. Should be done as if you are cross-country skiing. Ina is very keen on it.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

I have to say it looks a bit silly, and I've reported it to the Ministry Of Silly Walks, but they seem quite keen on it. Apparently it does you good.

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

To me, this is ridiculous. If the walking shall do you any good, swinging of the arms is of course a good thing at a brisk walk, but why do they need the sticks or staves as we call them, especially when they drag them along. Very good for skiing though. Somebody has made a fortune because of people's tendency in believing every thing in marketing that may appear scientific. Good for wobbly photographers with no or little stability.
