Album notes:

Here's a tip that will tell you a lot about Norway; I shot the Geiranger  Fjord from my hotel room.
That's not true of the Seven Sisters waterfall. I actually had to go out on the fjord to shoot that.
In this album you will find a couple of  photos of the historic Hundorp farm. It is historic mainly because it was the place where King Olaf outwitted his pagan enemies and brought Christianity to the Gudbrandsdal Valley.
The second reason is more subtle. My cousin, Johannes Rusten was walking along what used to be the Pilgrim Road when I shot his picture. This was the road that early Christians used to go to Trondheim, where the Norwegian church had its first bishopric.
The ruts made by the cart wheels are still clearly visible from traffic in the Middle Ages.
Hundorp also was the home of my earliest identified ancestor, Haakon Hundorp, in the 13th Century.
In Romsdalen, cousin Glenn Murray took me to an abandoned graveyard in the Kors subparish, where my Brudelie and Ellefson ancestors originated. Many of the names on the gravestones were familiar to me.
