She Said She Said

On Thursday, Katrine took me around Trondheim to do some sightseeing. I have to tell you, she is an excellent tour guide!

We took a rickety elevator ride to the top of this tower (Tyholttårnet)

The view from the tower Tyholttårnet.

Trondheimfjord from Tyholttårnet.

Kristiansten festning (Kristiansen fortress)
Don't I look tall? I love it!
Nidarosdomen (Nidarose Cathedral)
Nidarosdomen. Construction of the cathedral first started in 1070.
Bybroa (Old Town Bridge) Can you tell it was windy?

Nidelva (The river that runs through Trondheim)

Warming up in a cafe.

Wooden houses along Nidelva. Katrine's mom works in a wooden house along the river.  This picture was taken from her office.

More wooden houses along Nidelva. The office I was in was built in the 1700's.

We spotted this at the Trondheim library, and I just had to climb in for a photo op.

Going to visit the Nidar candy factory.

At the Nidar store. Katrine's friend works there.

140 kroner worth of candy! Gotta love factory store prices combined with an employee discount!

Making lefse

Yummmmmm... lefse with butter, sugar, and cinnamon.

From now on, I will not go out without extra batteries in my flipcam! I learned my lesson... :-(
I have obviously been in Norway for a while. It is so Norwegian to insert a smiley face into a sentence!
