Tjour of the Fjord!

After the Clubbers of the Senior Class arrived this morning fresh from their graduation activities, the Glee Club set its sights high. The Club hiked to the top of Preikestolen ("Preacher's Pulpit"), a cliff extending from the top of a mountain almost 2,000 feet above sea level, flanking a gorgeous fjord in southwest Norway. After a 2.4 mile hike that lasted about 2 hours, the Club reached the top of the mountain and sang on the cliff for other hikers at the peak. Following the impromptu performance, the Club had a photoshoot in our White Ties & Tails while taking in the breathtaking sight of the fjord. (Check back for some great pictures to be posted soon!)

Tomorrow, the Club will take a sightseeing tour of the area surrounding Stavanger and then perform a full-length concert at 7:00 PM tomorrow at Sola Ruinkirke, a historic church located in Stavanger.

Friday night's performance will conclude our wonderful stay in Stavanger. The Club will then head to Oslo, Norway to continue what is shaping up to be quite the eventful Tjour!
