I took the train from Trondheim and almost down to Oslo today. A 7 hours ride, passing over the Dovre Mountain. When Edvard Grieg wrote the music for Henrik Ibsen´s Peer Gynt, he found inspiration in the nature here in Norway. The Norwegian name of the composition The Hall of the Mountain King is I Dovregubbens hall. Dovre is the name of the mountain, a gubbe is some kind of an old man, or as in Ibsens play, a n old troll. I love the Dovre mountain area. Usually when I go there it is by car, once, when I was young and fit, I bicycled over, but today I went by train.
I had been looking forward to enjoy the beautiful scenery today, but everything was gray with rain and very low clouds. I did not even remember to open my camera for a photo, not until I was far over on the other side, where the train had a short stop at Otta. Well, you can see the clouds here and even some fresh snow.
I am staying with a friend from High School for a couple of days. We are having such a good time, talking so much, I have not even remembered to open my camera here either.......so far.
But who knows, may be there will be pictures and a new post tomorrow.
