Something pretty


Okay so I thought the whale meat was rather disgusting and that perhaps you might like a pretty image to help wash it down. This is what they call a stave church, with stave referring to the style of wooden roof tiling. It is in a little forested area on the outskirts of the city and it has a rather long and complicated history that I won't go into but which involves being burnt by death metal musicians at one point. Anyway, I thought it was really beautiful and very Viking like...perhaps you will forgive me for the whale meat shot now?

Oh Dave,.. it was burnt relatively recently and painfully reconstructed. Apparently the guy was a satanist and therefore against churches.
