Rondane National Park





Yesterday, Kevin and I took the dogs for a drive up to Rondane National Park. (Originally, we had planned to go to the old copper mining town of Roros, but after being thwarted by several mountain roads which were still blocked by snow, we decided to salvage the day by looking at the beautiful mountains in Rondane instead!) So many Norwegians were out and about yesterday. Most Norwegians have the whole week before Easter off, and many of them love to spend their vacation at their mountain cabins, skiing one last time before the snow melts. There was still so much snow up in the mountains that many people had to leave their cars by the road and haul their supplies by sled up to their cabins...the dogs were very curious about all that food sliding by at nose level! We had a nice walk and a gorgeous drive home, and we are still planning to make it up to Roros some day during the summer.
