Our plans to just relax and watch the sun set this evening were revised when we learned that there would be a laser light show at Grand Coulee Dam this evening. We decided to take advantage of the opportunity and headed to the dam as dusk began to settle. We went down to the picnic area and just as dark began to fold around us the spillways were opened to provide a screen for the presentation. That in itself was pretty awesome. As the show started we repositioned so we could hear the public address speakers and settled onto the grass to watch One River, Many Voices. There was one point at which the show was upstaged by the deer behind us feeding on the grass and on leaves of a tree, just barely within reach of the does!
Our walking tour through the historic heart of Stavanger gave us insight into the canning and maritime industries that fueled this community as well as some tasty tidbits.
Our short visit to Njardarheimr gave us insight into life in 11th Century Norway and educated us on the role of “Vikings” within the Norse community of the time.
