Drammen is a city and municipality in the county of Buskerud, Norway.
Drammen was established as a municipality 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt). The rural municipality of Skoger was merged with Drammen 1 January 1964. (And then transferred from the county of Vestfold to the county of Buskerud.) There is also a town called Drammen in Wisconsin, named after the Norwegian city in 1877.

Takker for det, men du.. det er scooterspor, og scooteren min står rett bak meg :-) Jeg også venter på Linky. Kanskje Master Klaus har sovnet :-)
ReplyDeleteDu presenterer så fine bilder fra Drammen. Hvorfor har ikke jeg sett alt dette de gangene jeg har vært der? Eller har det skjedd spes mye de siste to-tre årene?
Nydelig bilde av byen du bor i!! rene reklame bloggen for Drammen du. Du ska se det ligger penger i dette..hihihi
ReplyDeleteNå vet jeg hvorfor bildene av dråpene ble så store...de var jo RAW format og det tenkte ikke jeg på når jeg skulle lagre dem.
Når jeg legger bilder ut i bloggen min, bruker jeg windows live writer, ett snedig program. Og da gjør jeg om størrelsene.
