We made our way through deep snow down to the river to do some field recordings.

Pasvic River
Today it is quite warm outside, compared to the last days. Only at its strands Pasvic River is still frozen. The air is filled with the sound of the melting and shifting ice layers. The crackling noise is only disturbed by vehicles, passing by towards the border.

Out of Kirkenes
We are driving towards the russian border and stopped behind the bridge over the Pasvic River.

What's for dinner?
A crucial part in fighting a cold is healthy homemade food. Hühnerbrühe und Haferbrei.

Sleeping Beauty
Most of the ships in the habour are under russian flag, a lot of them being repaired there and don't look as if they are in a condition to stay above water at all.

A diverse city
After getting the key we had a very nice chat at the tourist information again making clear that there are so many more aspects to explore regarding the history and future of Kirkenes that we need to come back here soon. In the making of this photo the lower half of Parker dissapeared in deep snow.

Catchin' a cold
Today was more an administrative day. Parker got himself a nice cold and we needed a warmer place to stay the night ... and got lucky to get our hands on, this a quotation: the key to the last two beds available in town. Besides the dog race there is a swimming competition held in town, so it is full of visitors from abroad.
