     VENUE
     
     The conference will be held at the main campus of the Norwegian
     Institute of Technology, which is located at about 15 minutes
     walking distance from the Trondheim city centre. Banks, post
     office, stores, restaurants and a travel agency are all located
     on the campus.
     
     In May in Trondheim the weather is usually pleasant. Temperature
     may vary between 8-15 degrees C. Rainy days may occur.
     
     
     GETTING TO TRONDHEIM
     
     Trondheim Airport has direct flights to Copenhagen and Stockholm
     and further connections to European and overseas destinations.
     There are frequent domestic flights between Trondheim and the
     international airports in Oslo, Bergen and Stavanger.
     
     Travelling by train within Norway gives an excellent opportunity
     for sightseeing, and Norwegian trains are of high standard. The
     train journey over the mountains from Oslo to Trondheim takes
     approx. 7 hours. An interesting alternative is to travel to
     Trondheim by coastal boat from Bergen, a journey of
     approximately 30 hours along the rugged Norwegian coastline.
     Your travel agent, or any SAS travel agency, can supply you with
     full details on travel to Trondheim.
     
     Special conference discount rates for travel by air within
     Scandinavia may be obtained. For more information, participants

     Thursday 13 May - Saturday 15 May
     
     Sheltered from the ocean among countless islands on the
     Northwest coast of Norway, approximately 5 hours by bus from
     Trondheim, lies the fishing village of Haaholmen. Haaholmen has
     both old and new fishermen's huts with modern conveniences for
     its guests. Staying in these real coastal surroundings you can
     enjoy life on the quay or join in fishing trips and excursions.
     Haaholmen is owned by Ragnar Thorseth from Her y in Norway - a
     modern Viking. Mr. Thorseth is internationally known for his
     round-the-world expedition in the Viking ship Saga Siglar.
     Originally, the island was owned by his grandfather.
     
     The fishing village Haaholmen has long traditions as a 'meeting
     point' for people travelling along the Northwest coast. The
     village is now re-created as a unique holiday paradise.
     Excellent kitchen naturally specializes in delicious seafood. At
     the quayside you can hire lots of different boats, such as
     rowing boats, motorboats and sailing boats as well as fishing
     equipment.
     
     Leaving Trondheim on Thursday 13 May at 15.00, we travel by
     coach to the town of Kristiansund. From here we go by boat along
     the coast to Haaholmen. Dinner will be served. On Friday we will
     explore the island of Bjoernsund, located on the South of
     Haaholmen. Dinner will be served on Haaholmen. We are leaving
     Haaholmen after breakfast on Saturday, and you will be back in
     Trondheim on Saturday afternoon.
     
     It is necessary to bring warm clothes, rainwear and good
     shoes/boots. Transport, accommodation, meals and guide service
     are all included in the price.
