Tautra

Here are some pictures from Tautra, an island on the same fjord that Trondheim is on. We spent about 5 days at a monastary there on a silent prayer retreat between Palm Sunday and Easter.

The chapel


The view was a bit of a distraction during the sermon. Not complaining though.



The old monastary ruins from 1207.








Our first morning there it was so windy. I stepped outside for about
one minute and my sweatpants were caked with snow. I love storms!!!



The view from my room.

Oh, dearest. The pictures you've taken. They are worth being half a world away from you.
