Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

Enga mellom Fjella




Sentinel

         Marked
                   as if you own me
I bow before the Bitterroots
and just like you
                   my rocky soil, my withered grass
                   lays prey to the empty sky.

...Lillihammer.

I managed to get on the train at the airport and arrived okay. Goofed up on how I did my reservation, but that was fixed. Then I overslept and missed breakfast. That's a definite no no in Norway.

Wandered around town and was really charmed by the outdoors museum, Maihaugen. Tomorrow I might take a look at the sites from the '94 Olympics.

My room is quite nice but I feel isolated as people seem to keep to themselves. This can be a real problem in Scandinavia. I've experienced this before.

Sent a postcard off but card and postage cost about $4.50 so I won't be sending many. Cheaper by far to call.

Lefse and lompe are both soft flat breads. Lompe is potato based.

With my odd combination of shrimpsalad, chicken wings and goatcheese.... I will survive.
