Oslo

Our next wonderful surprise was Oslo.  One day was not enough.  There are so many things to do in Oslo and it is a beautiful city with beautiful parks, amazing neighborhood and pretty homes.  I loved the architecture.  We wandered around Vigeland Park which has 200 sculptures done by Gustav Vigeland.  I would loved to have had time to see The Scream and go to the ski museum.






We stopped for lunch at the Grand hotel.  K had a hot dog from the kids menu and I had a cheese sandwich and a beer.  $50.  This was our first exposure to how expensive things are in Norway.


Opera House

I did not Photoshop this little boat!

Leaving Oslo was beautiful.  Miles and miles of fjords with little islands covered in cute, brightly colored cottages.  This was our view for several hours.







The girls ended the day in the hot tub on the back of the boat
