Arrival

Not
terribly much to say about Trondheim. I got the feeling most people

I
was sad to leave Lofoten behind but managed to drag myself to the

We
were lucky to get a clear night on my last night in A (also my last night north of the Arctic circle and last chance to catch the real midnight sun), so, after some digesting time (that fish was sooo good), the four
