Olso

There was a simple reason why I booked a flight to Oslo that would arrive at 11:10pm... it's significantly less expensive to fly off-hours. But there was an unexpected perk - a beautiful sunset during final approach. It was stunning. This reddish orange light poured through the windows on the left side of the airplane.

The Frognerparken and Vigelandsparken. Awesome parks and sculpture gardens conveying the range of human emotions.













Experienced the spectactular changing of the guard at the Royal Palace.






The Operaen (Oslo Opera House). Architecturally clever and distinct, I walked on it as well as in it.









The massive Holmenkollen olympic ski jump. Went to the very top observation deck. Epic.












It's my third day here and I'm really enjoying Oslo. Very green and woodsy country.







Norway is an extremely prosperous country with a very high standard of living, which makes it a seriously expensive place to visit. A basic tram or metro ride: $4.50, a Snickers bar costs $3.80, a 33cl bottle of Rochefort 10: $29, the experience: priceless.
