More of the roses for which Molde is well known. If you get really close to the screen, you can even smell them - their perfumes were delightful. And so were the strawberries for sale at many stalls along the main street.
Climbing up the hill some more, and there's even blue sky! And a little snow on the distant peaks across Romsdalsfjorden.
Higher and higher, and the view gets better and better. There is a walking path to the top of the hill, but we didn't have time to reach the top. There's also a road, but we had no car, and didn't really consider hiring a taxi.
That's rain in them thar hills, pardner!
This is a genuine, one owner norwegian wood! With all due resects to Lennon and McCartney. This was the point at which we reached the turn-around time, in order to return in time for dinner and tonight's concert.
Look roughly east, add a dash of sunshine, and voila! And the view is different on the way down.
Patrons settling in for the concert. Apart from the above problem of not being able to see, I found the music/singing to be a little repeatitious, at least in part because I did not understand the words. The group is, however, very talented.
After this concert, some of us went to the concert by Havard Wiik, the festival's artist-in-residence, in the theatre next to the restaurant where we had lunch. While he's technically a very skilled pianist, he played what I presume to be his own compositions, which were more designed to display his keyboard skills rather than be pleasant to listen to. And his audience contact skills need to improve.
