Oslo

We traveled overnight from Bodø to Trondheim, where we connected to the 7 hour day train to Oslo. The night part of the journey was spectacular - We covered the same route as our journey up north, but this time we had the midnight sun to make the scenery extra dramatic. It was a bit annoying in the end cuz I knew I needed to have some sleep, but I just wanted to stare out of the window all night. We got some kip and then found the Trondheim-Oslo section of the journey pretty dull - it was overcast/raining and the train took an hour longer due to flooding...

When we got to Oslo (finally) we jumped on the local train to Asker to meet my friend who was letting us stay. I won't say anything about that on here, but it was wonderful - I'll never forget your hospitality Von & family :). Anyway, mushy-ness aside. The next day we had an awesome tour of Oslo. We went to the Olympic ski-slope, and had a gander at the museum where I received a ribbing about Amundsen vs Scott :P.

We then went to the awesome Vigelandsparken Sculpture Park, followed by the the opera house where we stood on the roof overlooking parts of the harbour, and then chilled around central Oslo for the afternoon.

On Saturday, we went to a local lake for some swimming in fresh water. It was bloody freezing, but very fun.
