Only a few days before this, people were skiing across the lake!

Well, I'm really behind with this, but still have lots of photos from Eastertime to share, so I will try to catch up today. Easter (Påske) is a long holiday in Norway, starting on Maundy Thursday and ending on Easter Monday. All the shops are closed, except for a few grocery stores on Saturday (from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m). We went to services on Thursday, Friday, Sunday, and on Monday we went to a service at the Tromsø Museum, where they have many artifacts from old churches. We had a warm-up that weekend, so the streets had melted off quite a lot, and we had nice walking conditions. After the service at the museum, we were able to look around at the other exhibits—including ones with Viking and Sami displays, and natural history.
