Where you can find the perfect shot behind every corner! Photo and Trekking 07/08

when i went to oslo i didnt know what to expect. its a small yet busy habor city. with a love for the arts and its history. everyone i met there was super nice and loved to speak english. really funny fact, they also love to drink mojitos, which is a cuban drink. if you go make sure that it is in the summer it can get really cold. its very pricy, if you buy items from outside the country. just gives you all the more reason to try the local food, which is awsome!!

I'm not sure what was wrong with us this day.  Maybe we were tired from staying up late to watch a bad movie or maybe we were contemplating our 5am wakeup call that would occur in a few days, but we slept til about 11:30!  We woke up to a wonderful breakfast prepared by a magnificent host…

It was a wonderful, hot day. A perfect day to meet new friends. I headed in to Oslo and met Judge outside the hotel they were staying at around 6.30pm. After a few minutes we went up to their room where I also met Dave. As there were a Music Festival in town, Judge had found that his favorit…

Gaute (lesstrav) joined TravBuddy today and has a wonderful profile shot with a great effect.  But I had to lighten it up just a little to show his face more without losing the effect of the shot.  I hope you like the results. Gaute, don't forget to make a copy! :D   I do this Pho…

Oslo Norway: 6/7/08             Well it never got dark last night; at 03:00 there was still some light high up in the sky. After a good breakfast at the hotel, and yes I made sure I packed a good lunch while at the breakfast buffet. We wer…

St. Hallvard is the patron saint of Oslo.  He allegedly died attempting to protect a woman wrongly accused of theft.  He is now revered today as a martyr who died in defense of innocence and thus best embodies the spirit of chivalry.Ironically, since I have arrived in the Scandinavian ter…

To see the fjords, I suggest doing the Norway in Nutshell. It is enough. You don’t have to do Sognefjord. Too long and you will get sick of it. You are taken around the fjords by boat for about 2 hours and even enjoying the narrowest fjords which more interesting than doing it all the way from Fl…

En este ultimo dia de estancia en Noruega lo dedicamos a recorrer sus calles, a vivir la alegre vida que se ve en el verano, hace buen tiempo, hay mucha luz, buena temperatura, dan ganas de pasear. Visitar sus museos, los alrededores del palacio real, pero sobre todo ver la vida que se vive en la c…

Oslo is the largest city in Norway. I was there in the year 2000. I always wanted to see the northern part of Europe and this is my chance because at that time I had a weekend off from work when I was in Germany. Thank you to the modern technology and credit card. I arranged everything instantly by…

The next day we got up and left downtown for breakfast. We bought it in the supermarket nad went for a tour around town. We made some photos of buildings and statues, which I mislaid. I hope to find them later. After that we left for the festival. It was suppose to start at 16 o'clock, but we want…

By now our European wanderings have covered just over 5,000 miles ( approx 8,000kms) and we are about to see some of the biggest contrasts yet in this stunning land.  As fast as I add a new word to my vocabulary from a new language, we leave that country.....  toalett ( toilet) …

A great place to live. I have been coming here on and off for the last 7 years.
