Before leaving Tromsø

All of these pictures are from Tromsø. This is looking at our apartment. Our car is to the right and our apartment is just behind that. The pile of snow to the left is from clearing the entrance and drive way. They just send a snow plow out and push it up into several piles. This is one of them. We heard that it snowed about three feet total during the four days after we left Tromsø.
This is a car that some one parked in the fall with the windshield wipers lifted up so that they wouldn't be frozen to the windshield. The snow plow has just pushed snow away from both sides of the car and left the car buried in the snow. This photo was taken on the 10th of April.
We took some time to take a cable tram ride to the top of a mountain in Tromsø. This shows Sister Humphrey and in the background is the south end of the island that is Tromsø. Tromsø means Troms island. Tromsø is the county seat of the county of Troms, one of the counties in Norway.
This shows the north end of Tromsø and the bridge that goes from the island to the main land, which is in the forground.
