I do not have much to write about, but I can tell
how we travelled.
When we arrived at Oroen
they were not up yet. So we decided to rest at the
tanner's. But when we came there they were not up yet either. We were
the first of our
party to arrive in Lillehammer.
Sina and Ole Restad
did not arrive until later in the day. We did not leave Lillehammer until
4 in the afternoon. We rode on the ice for a while. All four of us sat
in a sled and had good covers, so we were not cold. And there was another
horse and a boy who transported our cases. We rested at a place called
Storsanden. When
we left from there it started raining. And it rained all evening while
we travelled. At nine-thirty we arrived at a posting station in Ringsaker
called Svendgaard.
It was beautiful there. Ringsaker church was close by.
In the morning we mostly travelled on the ice. we arrived in Hamar just
before the train
was to leave. So we took the train and it went to Kristiania. As it became
dark in the evening we checked in at Harald
Haarfagres Hotel. We had a room together, Matthias
and I, Sina and Ole Restad and Nils Seielstad. The others from Gausdal
have a room in another part of the building. Matthias is so busy organizing
everything that he has not had time to accompany us in town. But Nils
and Ole have been with us, and Ole bought us dinner one day. We ate at
Dampkjøkkenet. Many took their dinner there. And we visited Anne
Enge and had coffee and cakes. And Harald Enge served us beer. I have
to end now.
Live well and sincere greetings from
your Randi
I also spoke to Agnes.
