Vikings of Bjornstad - Henrik Ibsen Park Picnic

The Sons of Norway put on an annual picnic at the 27-acre Henrik Ibsen Park owned by the San Franciso-based Henrik Ibsen Lodge. The park is in the Coast Range Redwoods on the San Francisco peninsula. It's a beautiful setting for a picnic - and Vikings. The Vikings of Bjornstad got the opportunity to join them in August, 2013. A few photos (primarily of the park) follow.

The park is laid out well for picnics.	There's even a pool.
The children's play area.	Inflatable fun.
Nothing is more Viking than a rune stone.	There's no shortage of tall timber.
