Oslo
Jul 18, 2006 (24 photos) After a lovely holiday from the holiday in Melbourne, I'm back in Europe, this time in Oslo, Norway. I've fallen in love with Oslo, but maybe that is because the weather has been so nice. It's actually hot here! And is is only dark for a couple of hours ... |

Flamsbana railway...
Jul 6, 2006 (32 photos) ... credit card, it would be stupid to get into debt on a country that looks far less exciting than Norway anyway (sorry Kristian!). So, I booked a flight from Tromso to Oslo with the aim of finishing my jaunt on a high... My only regret on this trip, as ... |

Cute Drug Sniffing Dog

Dusting off the backpack...
Jun 14, 2006 (2 photos) My trip to Norway began with a couple of nights in Oslo, and although my first impressions weren't great, I warmed to it in the end. Perhaps I was a little underwhelmed because the bus journey from the airport had been very scenic, and suddenly I was stuck ... |

The loss of a hero

Perfectly Nordic
Sep 15, 2007 (115 photos) ... Where it's colder than we'd like to remember and definitely the furthest north we'd ever travelled. We found ourselves in Oslo, Norway. I had always romanticized Scandinavia, ever since I read a book on Norse myths and legends in high school. I always ... |

Vigeland's Oslo
Sep 16, 2007 (104 photos) ... . We had already prepared for this though, as had our hostel room mate, Peggy. She had been in Stockholm before coming to Oslo and the rain over there had apparently been as common as Ikea. We all wanted to see the Vigeland Sculpture Park so we decided ... |

Back to the warmer weather
Jul 13, 2005 ... room mate. The beer is really expensive. Works out to 5 pounds for half a litre. Good thing I've only had one night out in Norway. The next day I headed off to see the sights. I found the general feel of Oslo a bit non-descript. The architecture was a ... |

In and Out
Aug 7, 1999 ... Oslo through a series of under-building tunnels we ended up in the centre with the sun again blazing. I was hugely impresses with Oslo and a little disapointed that we weren't going to spend more time here, just a side effect of travelling with others. It ... |

Time to leave again... :-(
Oct 31, 2006 My time at home was up and I had to leave home for Boulder again. I needed a follow up on my neck, so I couldn't stay in Oslo any longer. The time flew by. I had a great month at home (except for the weather.) Went for long walks in the woods with Chili ( ...

First weekend in Oslo
Jun 25, 2006 (2 photos) ... but nothing unusual to report. We tried a couple of the cafes near my apartment. There's a "Bagel O Juice" and a "Kaffebrenneriet" (Oslo's Starbucks). Bagels aren't bad, but not like back home ;-). My mocha is a little odd - they don't use sweetened ...

Never ending sun
Jul 4, 2006 (29 photos) Oslo was quite strange due to the fact that at 1 am it was so sunny out it looked like it was 6 PM. We don't think that it every got dark. Taking part in a Norwegien delicacy we enjoyed some waffles with something called brown cheese or Gjetost. The ...

Oslo - gateway to the fjords
May 30, 2009 (2 photos) A VERY quick day in Oslo, although I think we saw most of the sites. We had a really warm day, probably the warmest of the trip! There were Norwegians sunbaking in every park or grassed area - they do not need a beach to do it! We ...

Thieving little rascals!!!
Jul 18, 2005 Well, here I was bragging to my ex that I had the correct passport to enter the US, and he had to get a new one. Well, that karma certainly came back to bite me in the butt. 10 days before the trip my passport got stolen. Grrrr... and here, a new one has ...

Első napok Osloban
Jun 24, 2006 (10 photos) Helló mindenki!!! Hát, tegnap szerencsésen megérkeztem Norvégiába, Osloba. Hogy mit is keresek én itt?
