Church in the sky

I’m away filming in one of my favourite places on earth:

The charming mountain town of Røros, Norway.

Church swirl copy

Soaring majestically into an always dramatic sky,

The church of stone – built in the late 1700s – stands out

From the simple wooden huts that surround it.

Church view

Built on a hill, the church

Has a marvellous view of the old wooden houses with grassy roofs

And the big open sky.

(Please excuse me if I don’t get around to visiting you – I’m away in this slice of paradise!)

  3. How beautiful and to think I was there when I was 10. I don’t remember much though. It was a summer filled with mountain adventures.

  5. Hello on a gorgeous, spring day in TENNESSEE. Wow—after the long and bitter winter we had this year, Spring is even more inviting and lovely.

    Wow—it’s no wonder that is one of your favorite places. What a beautiful place to film… You are enjoying yourself, I’m sure… AWESOME photos.

    We are now home ‘again’ –after our 5th trip since the end of February…. Seems as if we visited five different states –although the trips weren’t planned for that reason… ha… BUT–as I always say, it’s great to be home… I did publish a blog post today–so check it out when you have time. Have a wonderful weekend.

    Hugs,
