... importance and one of northern Europe's greatest Gothic memorials. It is reasonably drab on the inside (too Lutheran for my tastes) but the outside facade is spectacular. The grounds are great and the Bishop's digs well wrth the stroll. Trondheim has a old fortress which is a nice hike past brightly coloured houses (with stunning doors in blue, yellow and red). It provides for some decent photography and some features worth viewing such as German WW ...

Our first stop this day was Trondheim, Norway's first capital city and a trading post for thousands of years. Apparently the first ever export of American goods to Europe took place here around 1000 AD. After the capital moved to Bergen (1217), Trondheim became Norway's religious center (actually, pilgrims started coming to the shrine of St. Olav 200 ...

Trondheim polozone jest w odleglosci niecalych 500km od Oslo - a z uwagi na predkosc jechalismy tu caly dzien (Oh my God!!!). Po drodze zawitalismy do Lillehammer - skocznia okazala sie niewielka atrakcja przy zjezdzie bobslejem, na ktory zdecydowali sie Bob i Monika B. - szacuneczek. Piekne widoki gorskie po drodze i po 21:00 jestesmy na miejscu. Nocny spacer po Trondheim - urocze, nabrzezne miasteczko. Glowne zwiedzanie przed poludniem w poniedzialek. Poniewaz hostel ...

... the location of and access to the Hurtigruten dock, which we will be departing from tommorrow. The MS Norjesteren, one of the fleet's oldest and smallest ships, was in the dock and I believe it was running south. From the wharves we walked back to the central area, initially through the old dock redevelopment area. Both of us agreed that it wasn't exactly the world's best practice but it had brought activity into the otherwise industrial area. Continuing along the river, through ...

... and craft festival. We then went out to dinner with some of mommy's co-workers. After a long day, I slept in a little later on Sunday and then went to visit the inside of the cathedral and the design museum. After that, we went to the conferences big dinner and then continued to hang out with members of the conference. Click on the photos link so that you can see much of what we saw. Love you all...

... north through the mountains and down into Trondheim, Norway's third largest city. Time went fast on the train as Bev and I had time to talk, play a few games of Scrabble and read. Also, it was so enjoyable to just look out the window and enjoy the winter beauty. A lot of snow has fallen, but our train came to Trondheim right on time at 1448. Ni Ni was there and we walked about five minutes to a bus and then about ...

... geschneit hat, hihi. Also wenn es nach mir geht, kann es bis Weihnahten noch ein paar mal so aussehen. Zu hoffen, das der Schnee bis Weihnachten liegen bleibt ist glaube ich sinnlos. Der Schnee hat auch einen sehr angenehmen Nebeneffekt, er reflektiert Licht und somit ist es abends relativ hell. Da ist es nicht ganz so schlimm, dass sich die Sonne schon 15.45 untergeht. Übrigens ist für den ganzen Tag weiterer Schnee angesagt. So und jetzt geh ich ein paar Bilder machen, damit ihr mir glaubt.

... und sind entspannt, nett und wollen wirklich Wissen vermitteln. Kittel und weiße Sachen werden von der Klinik gestellt und können mit der Studentenkarte immer und in beliebiger Anzahl am Automaten geholt werden. Los geht es 8.30 und maximal bis 16.30. Meist hat man aber zwischendurch frei. Lehrbücher sind ziemlich teuer, aber es gibt eine sehr gut bestückte medizinische Bibliothek. Außerdem hat man Zuagng zu Computerräumen in ...

... dorm, get a good breakfast, free internet access, in the hostel`s cafe you can find a cheap evening meal and cheap beer (for Norway anyway), but more impressive is the toilet shower. Yes, my friends if you are in rush in the morning you can have a shower and go to the toilet at the same time. It was here where i just chilled spending most of my time watching various free concerts and just absorbed the atmosphere. The artists ...

... rolling hills of pine trees and occasional farms. It's like driving to Cle Elum, without all the towns and tree cutting. It's rural and pristine, practically untouched. It's something that can't be described, or photographed, but something to be experienced. I loved it. We took the bus to Heimdal, a suburb-type area outside of Trondheim. Here, we took a tour of Addressavisen, the oldest newspaper in Norway. Founded in 1767, it has covered the French Revolution, the union with ...
