     Asko ble stående i hallen. Det var nesten som å komme inn i Marstrand kirke. Steingulv og høyt under taket, lysekroner og store vinduer.
     "Oi" sa han. "Det blir ekko når man snakker."

     Asko was standing in the hall. It was almost like going into Marstrand church. Stone floors and high under the roof, chandeliers and large windows.
     "Oi" he said. "There's an echo when someone speaks."
