Morning, Valhalla

Valhalla was the residence of the ancient nordic gods Thor, Odin etc... It is also the name of a cliff near where I live, with a wonderful view of the lake and rolling hills of dense forest, especially in the late autumn mornings.

In the old times poor people would let their really old relatives either jump or get thrown over the edge, to ease the economy... and the old folks were promised they would go to valhalla for eternity as a reward...
