Atlantic Ocean Road - Trondheim

The Atlantic Ocean Road in moody fog, then Trondheim: Colourful warehouses on the Nidelva, the 11th-century Nidaros Cathedral and a very good Thai dinner.

In short

Across the Atlantic Ocean Road once more, this time in moody fog, then by ferry and car to Trondheim. Waiting for us there: The colourful warehouses on the Nidelva, the mighty 11th-century Nidaros Cathedral and an exceptionally good Thai dinner at Lan Na.

After packing and cleaning the Airbnb, the first thing we do is drive over the Atlantic Ocean Road again. This time the weather shows a different side: It is foggy and cloudy, but now and then the sun breaks through the cloud cover. We make good progress all the way to Trondheim.

We take the car ferry across the fjord from Kanestraum to Halsa, which saves us more than an hour’s drive. Today we have lunch in the car and arrive in Trondheim around 2 pm, where we return our Avis rental car at a petrol station. We simply drop the key into a key box, and the car is returned. Then it is back to carrying our own luggage to our P-Hotel Brattøra near the station. After checking in, we immediately head out to explore Trondheim a bit more. We enjoy the view of the many colourful houses reflected in the water near the harbour. After a visit to the outdoor shop “Skandinavisk Høyfjellsutstyr”, where Annina buys a warm yellow jacket, we pop into a few more shops. Then we visit the famous stone church “Nidarosdomen”, which was built in the 11th century and has just been renovated. The church is very impressive. Its sheer size alone is breathtaking. It is also built entirely of stone, which suits the far north perfectly. Once again we have really nice weather and enjoy the sunshine while strolling through Trondheim. This time we have dinner at “Lan Na”, a Thai restaurant with exceptionally tasty, beautifully presented food. We have spring rolls as a starter. For the main course Annina has the classic Tom Kha soup with rice and Nicolas the Pad Med Ma Muang, a stir-fry with cashew nuts. Full and content, we walk back to the hotel and are glad when we get there, because in the meantime it has started to rain in Trondheim. We watch a few episodes of Stranger Things before going to sleep.
