August 23 Gjøvik Fountains (Day 331)
Gjøvik, pronounced “Yur-vik”, with that Scandinavian intonation on the ‘Yur’ or ‘ur’ from the ø vowel used in Norwegian, Danish, Faroese, and Southern Sámi languages.
We took a walk early this afternoon, before the rain was predicted, down to the main shopping area near the train station. There is a nice park-like setting at the train/bus station with several fountains.
This fountain must be beautiful at night with the multicolors illuminating the water columns.
We named this fountain “How Much Water Can You Squeeze From a Fish”!
We did get rained on walking back to the Airbnb!
