... booking, we discovered where we had to head. Luckly just after reaching the hostel, the heavens opened and it chucked it down.<br> We had only booked to stay for one night as we are making our way up to Tromsø. So during the day (right now) we visited the only sights that are here. The Nidaros Cathedral and the old town and ...

... 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 ...

... forward to since her Norwegian friend had specifically recommended it), the seas were too rough and the boat continued up the coastline. <br><br> We stopped in Bodo, where we visited a modern cathedral (1956) and the surprisingly interesting Bodo Nordland Museum. This museum contains exhibits of traditional Sami life and a huge collection of ...

... dann leider erstmal etwas warten, denn der Bus hatte so seine Probleme mit der spiegelglatten Strasse. Nach mehreren Versuchen gelang es dann endlich die Schneeketten so zu befestigen, dass der Bus den Berg hochkam. So kamen wir mit 1 1/2 Stunden Verspätung an der Mine an. Die Führung bekamen wir aber dennoch - alle hübsch mit Platiktüten geschmückt. Die waren nicht etwa zum Schutz unserer Schuhe, nein, die ...

It's been a glorious wonderful day here in Trondheim. Nothing beats this town in great weather. It's extremely cold -12 degrees with a breeze which makes it very invigorating (read insanely cold!) <br><br>I drove around Trondheim photographing all day today. I went back to some of the places from my childhood, even back to the house where I grew up. <br><br>I've spent the last few days with my family and friends in Trondheim. I'm looking forward to skiing at Oppdal on Thursday.

Moose Watch 2007 has begun with me spotting 7 moose (mooses, meese??) on the train from Hamar to Rørøs and back again. I havent gotten a chance to take a photo yet let alone ride one so Blake and I will still be aiming to fufil that challenge when he arrives in Europe. As for Rørøs it was beautiful. I wandered around the church which was built in the 1770s I believe, the slag heaps, mining museum and ...

Hi @ all, this weekend I took part at a canoe tour at lake Femunden. It was just great. I just can everybody suggest to go there. It is rely diversified. The lakes in that area are connected through little pass way's and rivers. Which makes it rely interesting to be there. But that is all to the place. I let the ...

As you know, I am in Northern Norway on my week-long excursion. So far it has been a lot of fun. I am currently in Trondheim, but I am just going to say that I am in Røros for fun (and so I can get a little pin on my map of Norway!) We left bright and early on Monday morning and took a train from Hamar to Røros. The scenery was beautiful! I really enjoyed the trip and we all just sat around and talked. When we stepped off the train ...

As part of our Society and Culture class, we took a week-long excursion to the north which was a very interesting trip. I will try to do an entry for each of the places that we stopped and spent the night. We began, of course, in Hamar at the train station where we met fairly early in the day in order to head away from the familiar sight of Mjøsa (the big lake). Our university has campuses in 4 or 5 different locations with the ...
