Arriving Trondheim!

28 July - Trondheim and Heimdal!
Solfrid met us at Trondheim Stasjon. Although we have not seen each other since the summer of 1985, when she was 19 years old, we have kept in touch, following the inevitable twists and turns of a life well lived: her career as a police officer, her first marriage to Tron Falk, the birth and development of her daughters Pia and Tora, her marriage to Geir in Rarotonga, now her two grandchildren Henrik (age 3 years) and Tyra (age 4 months)...

She has a lovely home in the suburb of Heimdal with Geir Baakhaug and their two Brittany Spaniels (Kasper and Buskus).
Chef Geir
Geir is also with the police force and is truly a Renaissance man. He hunts and skis (jumps, downhill and cross-country). He rock climbs and rides mountain bikes. He even gardens and cooks! For dinner we enjoyed game (grouse and two other birds we could not negotiate a translation for) that he had hunted. I was in heaven!
