I didn't tell you the whole truth the other day when I wrote that I sat at Bjerkebæk to write while Terje took part in the Birkebeiner'n Run. I did go to Bjerkebæk, I did sit there for a long time, I did write a whole chapter for my upcoming book...........but before climbing the steep hills up to Bjerkebæk, I did a very nice walk in the main shopping street at Lillehammer, the pedestrian street Storgata.
In Storgata they have a wonderful, fantastic, amazing store named Raabe-Gården, with clothes absolutely perfect for my size. I am a big, no sorry, I am a woman with a perfect size, Raabe-Gården has perfect size clothes. And they fit me.....yeah, you are right, they fit me PERFECT.
Friday night, after dinner, Terje and I walked, hand in hand, all the way down Storgata, all the way back to the hotel again. Outside Raabegården we stopped, well, I stopped and as Terje held my hand he didn't have much choice, did he :-) I oh-ed and ah-ed for a long time. I do think Terje tried to find out ways to hide his money and his credit cards there and then, but no use of course. I have my own money, I have my own credit cards. And when he was out running on Saturday he had no control. I went back to Raabegården, back to my shopping heaven. And I shopped!
