Again, I do not mean to be offensive, but having "seen" Hamar only on the internet, it strikes me as a particularly depressing place, sterile and barren; it might as well be in Sweden, rather than Norway.
If anyone has any photographs of Hamar that show "life," "spirit," "animation," "soul," "history," "meaning," or "purpose" of Hamar--and surely it is NOT a dead city--please post them for our illumination.
I hope to get to Bergen (part 2) and Tonsberg soon, and also have Halden, Hammerfest, Haugesund, Hermansverk, Holmestrund, Holmsbu, Honningsvag, Horten, and Hvaler on the "schedule."
