SCARY VAN LIFE INCIDENT - SLIDING OFF A SNOW MOUNTAIN! WINTER VAN LIFE NORWAY
Footage of the snowfall at 2am. Footage of the snow the following
morning afternoon. Drone shots. Screeching. Lazy tells us the tractors have been at it all morning saving their backs as they clear the snow. She struggles to open the van door and cackles at the depth of the snow. People are sledging. Esme screeches at her not to step down into the snow. Lazy ignores her and it’s up to her knees. Jace asks if it’s just snow and starts screeching when she confirms it is. He almost hyperventilates over the tractor. Lazy screeches and cackles about the snow on top of the van. The thickness is insane. Its 18° and toasty in the van. Mila is shocked.
Creepstopher puts his shoes on. Lazy reassures Jace he can walk through the snow. He gets on the sledge. Lazy gives Babe his phone.
Did she confiscate it to keep Norwegian teenage girls safe? They’re wounded as they realise they’re next to a school and the chuldren they saw sledging earlier are probably doing PE. A schoolteacher comes out and says they can join the school. Unforthcoming Isla this doesn’t mean she’s about to start getting a proper education. They walk up the hill. Jace is excited. Lazy moans about walking up the hill. Sledge footage.
A girl told Lazy that carrying skis up a hill is tiring. They have to be careful of what they film because of the schoolchuldren. Back at the van the chuldren bury each other in the snow. Jace is burying Isla. His hair looks wet and tangled. Isabelle doesn’t feel cold when it isn’t windy. She still has the tag on her coat. She didn’t want to sledge and just got photos for Instagram. The snow is always frozen so you never get wet.
Drone. Lazy cannot believe her eyes looking at the views. It’s like a dream. The snow is almost as thick as her. No cars go past for ages so Creepstopher makes her get out of the van and walk to get a shot of him driving past like a n0n€ey boy racer whilst rap music plays. Drone. More driving. They have to stop to film the view. Creepstopher is wetting himself with excitement.
A few times they have seen mounds and wonder what they are. They’re cars that people leave during the winter. Their breaths have been taken away today. Creepstopher was nearly crying over the sledging this morning because they needed to get to the fjord. Isla looks cold and only has a jumper on. Esme is getting photos for Instagram.
Back to the rap music for more driving. Another
bleeping fjord. Tunnel. Creepstopher gets sentimental about seeing the rock inside the mountain that the tunnel has been carved in. Cackling. More driving. Woohoo. They come out of another tunnel. Lazy is terrified. They’re skidding. Creepstopher hits the brakes. They’re going super slow. Lazy tells Babe to get in the middle of the road. It’s a 9° decline. Snow chains go on. Cars are flying past and it’s so dangerous. Lazy shows the long road they’re on on her phone. It’s much better with the chains on. No one else has snow chains on. There is a beast mountain in front of them. The road is hairpins and hairpins. They hope the town they’re heading to has shops as they need water. More banging on about the bloody road.
The Park for the Night spots are killing the Inghams. They pull up. Some people will 100% understand why Lazy is scared of being parked near water in case the van was to slip back into the water. She has an irrational fear when she’s sleeping. They argue about it on every van trip. There was a big argument.
How lovely for the chuldren and not distressing at all for their parents to be arguing in the middle of god knows where. Creepstopher assured Lazy he has bought a big shovel but it looks like a bucket and spade. Lazy’s hand is bigger than the shovel. He is digging so he can park the van the other way. He is making mountains out of molehills and doing more work than needed. Lazy cannot trust the van. The van is moved.
Lazy shows photos she took on her phone. It’s like a Coca Cola advert for Christmas. Babe screeches that she’s off to make dinner. Isla comes outside wearing only her jumper again.
Creepstopher is helping Lazy cool the eggs down by rubbing his disgusting fingers all over them and then putting them in snow. Jace and Mila eat gingerbread. They remind Lazy of Christmas biscuits. Jace talks about the thing on the chimney that stops birds flying into the house. Creepstopher says they have to tell birdies to go.
By 1pm so Lazy doesn’t catch you with them when she rises from her pit. Santa can get down the chimney with magic dust.
Lazy cannot cope with Creepstopher. The pipes are frozen. They have something that insulates the pipes and stops them freezing bit with the temperatures they’re experiencing it’s not working. Tonight Creepstopher is filling up a pan of snow to boil on the hob and wash up with. He shows us the cutlery he’s washing. Next they’ll do the plates and pan.
The night is ending with Creepstopher talking a walk with Isabelle, who is wearing a wanket. The place they’re at is listed as a beach. The fjord is one of the biggest in Norway.
