Weekend in Tromsø

Went to tromsø this weekend, partially success due to the extreme amounts of whiskey consumed.
Friday's dinner was... i cant find words... the junkfood, no wait, the gourmèt Garlic Burger at Blårock is... HEAVENLY.

Saturday... a major downside was that the dude i stayed with literally FORCED me to watch soccer... for FOUR painfull hours, thank heaven for whiskey... :D
So, soccer followed by like i said above, extreme amounts of whiskey turned out to be a really good night, well the parts that stuck to my memory the day after.
The trip home from that pub or whatever we were at were... WET, WET AND WET. pissy rain and we WALKED 5 kilometers because i couldnt get a hold of a god damn cab... :@

Sunday... Starting to regret the extreme amounts of whiskey consumed followed by an orchestra playing phantom of the opera on DRUMS in my head.

But i forgot the main reason for visiting Tromsø, was supposed to attend a seminar about "green IT" and such.
When i reached the hotel at 08:00 on monday i got a bit of a surprise during the check-in, they didnt have my name registered nor did they have "company"'s seminar listed...
It turns out that the seminar had been moved to January/February and NOONE told me about that.
But "company" apologized for it and saved the day, free breakfast, lunch and dinner (Y)
Turned out to be a pretty damned good day afterall, learned quite alot about big networks and solutions for such.

I also visited a friend from school in Övertorneå, checked out his MacBook he's been bragging about for quite some time.
Really really classy and sweet laptop, but then again, its a mac... But the eyecandy was enchanting =) and i ALMOST got tempted to get one of those.
Also we had a battle. Windowsmobile VS. iPhone, we called it a partially tie.
