Lars walked along Bryggen in Bergen.

Vinteren hadde kommet, og de fargerike trebygningene var dekket av et tynt lag snø.

Sven dukket opp først.

" Lars lo med, men han visste det var mye sannhet i det Sven sa.

"La oss finne de perfekte støvlene!

"De ser solide ut," sa han.

"They look solid," he said.

Men Ingrid løftet et par som var både stilige og iøynefallende.

But Ingrid lifted a pair that were both stylish and eye-catching.

"Disse er trendy," bemerket hun.

"These are trendy," she remarked.

Lars kjente spenningen.

Lars felt the tension.

Han ville gjerne ha komfortable støvler, men Ingrid hadde rett.

He wanted comfortable boots, but Ingrid was right.

De trendy støvlene så bra ut.

The trendy boots looked good.

Sven ertet ham litt: "Skal du våge å prøve noe nytt, Lars?

Sven teased him a little: "Are you going to dare to try something new, Lars?"

" Lars lo og bestemte seg for å prøve dem.

Han tok på de trendy støvlene.

He put on the trendy boots.

De var overraskende komfortable.

Han snudde seg mot vennene sine.

He turned to his friends.

"Hva synes dere?

"What do you think?"

" spurte han med et hint av nervøsitet.

he asked with a hint of nervousness.

Ingrid smilte bredt.

Ingrid smiled broadly.

"De er perfekte for deg, Lars!

"They're perfect for you, Lars!"

" sa hun.

she said.

Sven nikket også, "Ja, de ser bra ut.

Sven nodded too, "Yes, they look good.

Kanskje du kan lære meg litt om mote?

Maybe you can teach me a bit about fashion?"

"Lars følte seg stolt.

Lars felt proud.

Han hadde prøvd noe nytt og lyktes.

Da de gikk langs Bryggen igjen, smilte Lars til vennene sine.

Han var klar for vinteren, både praktisk og stilfullt.

He was ready for winter, both practically and stylishly.

Nesten som Bryggen selv, tradisjonell men med en stilig vri.

Almost like Bryggen itself, traditional but with a stylish twist.
