Munkholmen











Morgan, Ross, and I went for a a little picnic outing to the island of Munkholmen, just a short ferry ride from Trondheim. Through its thousand year history, it has been execution grounds, a monastery, occupied by the Danes, the Germans and held some famous prisoners. We took a tour of the main building which contained the prison and dungeon. I managed to hit my head really hard going into the dungeon, and then fell against the stairs and hit my back, bruising myself. So either I'm really clumsy or the place is haunted. There was a German gun machine that we climbed into and tinkered with. It's a great place for picnicking and hanging out in the sun.
